Not really. I am typing this email on a laptop that has Emacs installed,
but there are no C sources in sight because Ubuntu doesn't supply them
as part of Emacs. When I click on the button to examine the source code
for 'car', an enormous popup appears, taking up the whole screen, that
has "Emacs C source dir:" at the top and a file chooser underneath it. I
normally don't use Ubuntu file choosers (I prefer using Emacs
minibuffers) and the whole thing is irritating and confusing: I can't
get at Emacs while the file chooser hogs the whole screen, so I just
close out the file chooser and give up.
