A Brief emulator for Emacs is an amusing idea, considering that it, like
many editors, stole many of its ideas (including keybindings) from Emacs!

See also below. In X Window, you can triple click a line to select it.

C-x 2
C-x 3
C-x 1
C-x o  ;that's "oh", not zero.

There is ediff comparison, but I think you mean something else.

Have you tried
(load-library "grep")
M-x grep foo *.txt
Then middle mouse button (emulated by simultaneous right/left button)
clicking in the results window?

You might try running this, which I believe requires xemacs:
(fusion-set-mode t)

This is a "Codewright" emulator, which I hope is similar to
"CodeWrite".

I have to find a decent standard specification for keybindings.
I hope to fix keybindings in my next major revision of EMacro.
Until then, I recommend that you look at keys.el in my latest
beta:
