Emacs is actually the name of a family of text editors that are either descended from or inspired by one another.
The Emacs screen is completely devoted to the text of your file, except for one line near the bottom of the screen: the Mode Line.

 Beginner's Emacs
Emacs will clear the screen and you are ready to type in your text.
Like most editors, Emacs maintains its internal pointer (called `point') between characters, not on a character, so on systems which place the cursor on a character, `point' is between that character and the one before it.
Emacs can edit many files simultaneously, each one in its own `buffer' (memory area), and you can divide the edit window into subwindows, each displaying a different file.

I resigned as the Mac maintainer of Emacs on November 4.
Judging from recent posts to Emacs related newsgroups, and E-mail messages I've been receiving, I get the impression that more and more less-savvy computer users are trying to use Emacs.
