This sounds like a good start. Don't let yourself get discouraged.

Personally, I use XEmacs (Linux, Win32 native) which might be a little
different. Here, the old-school windows shortcuts for copy/paste do work
(C-Insert, S-Insert, etc.). The others, C-c in particular won't and I
would not recommend changing the mappings. pc-select mode gives you
the selection behavior using S-right/left/up/down (cursor keys).

Depends on what your config file looks like. I'd consider using the
clients.

You will have to load a package called "speedbar". If that has not
been installed already you can get it from
http://cedet.sourceforge.net/

In VHDL mode type: C-c C-h

Dunno.
