I recently was given a copy (executable) of an EMACS editor for
my HP Vectra (PC-compatible MS-DOS machine).  It's set up to be
mostly softkey-driven, but 2/3 of the labels are completely
mysterious to me, since I've never used this type of editor before.

Any kind of documentation, tutorial, usage summary, whatever
would be appreciated!  (Email or SnailMail - my time to read news
is pretty limited right now...)

(p.s.  yes, I know, this might start another round of religious "editor
wars", but I hope not.  I am really fond of vi on our bsd4.3 Vax,
but now that I'm spending more and more time working on a PC,
I HAVE to find something better than Executive Memomaker!!)
