And due to the nature of a Lisp and Scheme interpreter, its capabilities extend far beyond text editing—it is more like an operating system. However, precisely because of its power and its long history spanning several generations of computers, using and configuring it is often considered complex and difficult. I share this view, but I believe that using Emacs’s basic features is entirely accessible. Furthermore, I believe Lisp and Scheme to be the most expressive programming languages, which makes configuring and using Emacs an interesting and rewarding activity.</p>
