Leaving Emacs
suspend Emacs (or iconify it under X) C-z
exit Emacs permanently C-x C-c
read a file into Emacs C-x C-f
save a file back to disk C-x C-s
save all files C-x s

Getting Help
The Help system is simple. Type
C-h and follow the directions. If you are a first-time user, type
C-h t for a tutorial.
remove Help window C-x 1
scroll Help window ESC C-v
apropos: show commands matching a string C-h a
show the function a key runs C-h c

Error Recovery
abort partially typed or executing command C-g

Simple Customization
Here are some examples of binding global keys in Emacs Lisp. Note that you cannot say
""M-#"; you must say
""e#".
(global-set-key ""C-cg" 'goto-line)
(global-set-key ""C-x"C-k" 'kill-region)
(global-set-key ""e#" 'query-replace-regexp)
An example of setting a variable in Emacs Lisp:
(setq backup-by-copying-when-linked t)
Writing Commands
(defun command-name (args)
"documentation"
(interactive "template")
body)
An example:
(defun this-line-to-top-of-window (line)
"Reposition line point is on to top of window.
With ARG, put point on line ARG.
Negative counts from bottom."
(interactive "P")
(recenter (if (null line)
0
(prefix-numeric-value line))))The argument to interactive is a string specifying how to get the arguments when the function is called interactively. Type
C-h f interactive for more information.
