I've been using computers all my life, #Linux and #Unix since the 90s, and word processors since #Wordperfect 5.1 for #MS-DOS but I still can't grasp the #vim and #emacs keybindings.

I know it's not necessary to learn all of them if all I'm doing is #writing novels but I still feel like I'm not a real Linux user if I can't do everything from the #commandline with input methods that predate the #ibmpc, the #modelmkeyboard, and even the #vt100 terminal.

Writing a novel in #emacs is quite straightforward and not very different from, uh, writing a novel.
Here is how I do it: starting with chapter 1 I would hit the following keys: Shift+C, h, a, p, t, e, r, space, 1.
Hope that helps.
