Emacs
To run emacs simply type ``emacs'' at the unix prompt. On the
sparcstations you should type ``emacs &''; (the ampersand
will allow you to type additional unix commands in the xterm window
because emacs will create its own window). It will tell you how to run
the tutorial (Ctrl-h t) which you should do soon, though you can probably
get through the first labs without it.
For the first lab all you need to know is that you can move around
with the arrow keys; You erase a character using the delete key; You
write your work to a file by typing Ctrl-x Ctrl-w and then putting in the
file name; After that you can save future modifications with Ctrl-x Ctrl-s;
You exit by typing Ctrl-x Ctrl-c. On the Sparcstations, you can also use the
mouse to move around, and menus to call many common commands (i.e., Save).
Use Ctrl-g to cancel any command.
