I tried to switch to emacs but couldn't find an introductory tutorial that was written for mere mortals.
Currently use vim, or things like gedit and kate that come w/ a DE. I would really like to learn to use emacs, but the last so called "beginner" tutorial I tried started with _learn a new lisp dialect so you can write emacs extensions_. Seriously.
Does anyone know where to find a tutorial that teaches you how to do things like open a file, type some stuff, and save the file?
Maybe show whitespace change highlighting modes and a few hotkeys if I want to get fancy... but like otherwise normal beginner stuff?
