Emacs is a powerful, customizable, self-documenting, modeless
|
||
|
|
editor. It is used primarely to edit text, including text
|
||
|
|
documents, source code of programs, web pages and XML documents,
|
||
|
|
but can also be used to display and edit binary files.
|
||
|

Emacs allows efficient editing of text with shortcuts which
|
||
|
|
allow operating on letters, words, sentences, and paragraphs as
|
||
|
|
single units. This includes both moving around and operations
|
||
|
|
like copying, deleting, transposing, and pasting. Macros can be
|
||
|
|
conveniently defined to repeat sequences of commands. In
|
||
|
|
addition, Emacs is (partially) built in a scripting language
|
||
|
|
(elisp) which can also be used to define further functions
|
||
|
|
extending existing capabilities.
|
||
|
|

Emacs has extensive support for editing source code, including
|
||
|
|
programmable syntax highlighting, automatic indentation, source
|
||
|
|
code indexing, overview modes, and navigation based on language
|
||
|
|
specific units like functions and blocks. It is also possible to
|
||
|
|
invoke the compiler from within Emacs and easily move between
|
||
|
|
compiler output and corresponding positions in the source.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
Emacs has multiple modules which provide further functionality.
|
||
|
|
This provides the capability to read mail, news, browse
|
||
|
|
pictures, read man and info pages, browse the web, execute
|
||
|
|
arbitrary programs, and more, without leaving the editor.
