Why GNU Emacs still matters as a plain text computing environment
Original: Use GNU Emacs the Plain Text Computing Environment
GNU Emacs, the long-running free text editor first released in the 1980s, is being promoted again as a full plain text computing environment rather than just an editor. Its supporters argue it can handle email, file management, programming and writing entirely in text, keeping workflows simple and future-proof. Fans are discussing how its extensibility in Emacs Lisp makes it a lasting tool for people who prefer text-based computing.
Why now: A guide to using Emacs as a plain text environment is drawing fresh attention and discussion among developers and text-editing enthusiasts.
