   Hi folks,
   I am a new user to emacs.  Are there any books/documents that I can
   read to get more acquainted with it?  I guess that a manual would be 
   available.  I would be very greatful if someone could point me to it.

   Thanks.

   Raman.

You can order the GNU Emacs Manual from the free Software Foundation.
Here is their address:

  Free Software Foundation
  675 Massachusetts Avenue
  Cambridge, MA  02139
  USA

Or call:

  617-876-3296

The price listed in GNU's Bulletin for January 1990 is $15, but
this price was only in effect until June.  You might drop them a line.

It's a pretty decent manual, and the quick reference card is a must!
