With regard to emacs beginners: Why not have it in both places? Function docs are a very quick and easy to use tool. Information there helps a lot. The manual is fine but too much for the beginner, who is always in a risk to get drowned (or drunk) with. __ Andreas Roehler PS.: As already mentioned: there is a gap between the tutorial and the manual in the didactic sense (which does not concern functioning and should not delay the upcoming release...) Also I don't conceive the manual as to big as such - on the contrary: the more information available, the better. Just propagate to have a second or third tutorial to ease the next steps of the beginners (there are some tutorials in the net which could be checked for that.)
