Emacs as word processor will expand the reach of Emacs, and thus software freedom too. ________________________________ From:Richard Stallman Subject:Emacs as word processor Date:Sun, 17 Nov 2013 02:28:51 -0500 ________________________________ 25 years ago I hoped we would extend Emacs to do WYSIWG word processing. That is why we added text properties and variable width fonts. However, more features are still needed to achieve this. Could people please start working on the features that are needed? -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation 51 Franklin St Boston MA 02110 USA www.fsf.org www.gnu.org Skype: No way! That's nonfree (freedom-denying) software. Use Ekiga or an ordinary phone call.
