I switched from using vi (yuck) to emacs a few months ago
and although I like emacs there are many things that I miss
about vi.  Here is a list - perhaps someone can tell me where
to FTP some files (*.el macros ...) to fix these problems: 

1) a nroff style man page 

OK here come my really big gripes:

2) I _really_ want the equivalent of vi's ":set nu" mode,

   and vi's paren matching *on demand* i.e. you put the point
   on a paren and press % and vi moves the point to the matching paren 

   ":set list" mode   

   I could live with a current point location displayed (line # 
   and column #) in the mode line in place of vi's :set nu


is there a FAQ for this group?  I looked on rtfm.mit.edu for one
but found nothing.
