Herein is found the programming manual for elisp (Emacs Lisp), the
|
|
dialect of Lisp used to extend (and write applications inside) GNU
|
|
Emacs.
|
|
|
|
Because Emacs Lisp is designed for use in an editor, it has special
|
|
features for scanning and parsing text as well as features for
|
|
handling files, buffers, displays, subprocesses, and so on. All Emacs
|
|
editing commands are available.
|
|
|
|
This manual attempts to be a full description of Emacs Lisp. For a
|
|
beginner's introduction to Emacs Lisp, see ``An Introduction to Emacs
|
|
Lisp Programming,'' by Bob Chassell. Also see ``The GNU Emacs Manual''.
|
|
|
|
This package contains the manual corresponding to Emacs 21.x. For
|
|
Emacs 22 and up, the Lisp manual is included in the main Emacs
|
|
distribution and consequently in the main Emacs package.
