Grumble, grumble.

Alas, here are some commands I found to be useful in emacs.

C-c C-c

Basically, depending on your file type, this will do awesome things. For .tex files, it either compiles or displays the compiled LaTeX file, based on (I guess) whether you've compiled it.

C-[space]

Use this to start selecting text. Move the cursor around, and it will highlight starting at where your cursor was when you entered the command.

C-> or C-<

Use to indent or outdent selected text.

Include the following in your .emacs file to set 4-space tabs.

(setq-default indent-tabs-mode nil)
(setq-default tab-width 4)
(setq indent-line-function 'insert-tab)

Uppercase a word using
M-u

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
grr, Aquamacs' (and prolly emac's) vi-emulator is buggy enough that I'm starting to learn emacs commands.

Now I have to add a new section, emacs, to document these commands.

Blab.

M-x artist-mode

M-x zone

You can also do M-x zone-when-idle. It's like a screen saver for your text editor! Madness!
