   Okay, I can Google [...]

Why does the search start with Google (and continue with other
downstream, non-terminating, whirlpool-shaped, out of date, referenda)?
Why not go to the source?  The Emacs Lisp manual, the Emacs Lisp code,
the Emacs customization facility, the Emacs *scratch* buffer, the Emacs!

   Personally I've been admiring Emacs from afar for quite some time.

Pirsig sez: Quality is the moment of perception.
Afar dilutes this.  Stop it.
