Subject: Announcing Easymacs: an all-in-one Emacs configuration for newbies
Date: Thu, 30 Jun 2005 09:52:59 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87r7ek6xas.fsf@heslin.eclipse.co.uk> (raw)
Easymacs is an easy-to-learn, one-size-fits-all configuration for new
users of GNU Emacs. It sets up key bindings that conform to a common
denominator of the Gnome/KDE/OS X/Microsoft Windows human interface
guidelines, and provides function-key bindings for other powerful Emacs
features. It is fully documented, and the new user can productively edit
text right away, without going through the Emacs tutorial. Many
commonly-used functions can be accessed without having to learn the
"chords", or multiple keystrokes that Emacs uses by default.

I'm not saying it's appropriate for the users on this list, but it might
be the thing for the Emacs-haters in your life.
