learning emacs

[Liz Hare]

Emacspeak does some cool custom stuff for Emacs, like when you arrow 
down through a directory, it reads just the file name unless you ask for 
all the permissions and other data about the file. Unfortunately, it 
doesn't work well with ESS (Emacs Speaks Statistics) which provides an 
environment within Emacas for interacting with statistical software like R.

Plus I am going to be doing a lot of coding on Linux over the next few months both in bash scripts python and c/c++, and as I recall there are some features of emacs that could help with that.
