Our site is putting together a short booklet designed to introduce a
new user to our VAX/VMS cluster.  I'm writing the section on GNU
Emacs.  The objective to is briefly introduce a person to how to do
simple editting, then what sort of other things can be done, and how
to get additional information.  Since my introduction to Emacs was
brute force eleven years ago at MIT, I have no idea how to write a
"gentle introduction."  If anyone has attempted such a thing and has
(1) a document they would share, or (2) some advice on what to do (or
what not to do), I would appreciate hearing from you.

Thanks!
