I think it is quite impressive how far this little editor has come. OK, so it is perhaps not just an editor anymore. Some people claim it is a fully sufficient operating system and other refer to it as a kitchen sink.

Still interested? Be sure to take the tour and then proceed to explore the wonderful world of Emacs.
