Since you are used to Textmate, here is one place you might start: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/TextMate And this is another good place to start: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/EmacsNewbie More generally, in addition to help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org, which is good for specific questions (and some discussion), Emacs Wiki is a good resource for learning Emacs and Emacs Lisp. It's easy to search for info there. http://www.emacswiki.org/ Also, it's always a good idea to ask Emacs itself for help and ideas. It has a great help system, including hypertext manuals. The EmacsNewbie link above has lots of links to info about learning Emacs and asking Emacs for help. This includes a hands-on tutorial and Web-based guided tours and demos. Have fun.
