This buffer is _temporary_ and _editable_.
It is meant as both a tutorial and a sandbox.
The quickest way to open or recreate this is with `M-2 M-j'.
1. Basic keys (eev)
The most basic keys of eev are:
M-e - to follow a hyperlink. Mnemonic: "(e)valuate"/"(e)xecute".
See: (find-eev-quick-intro "2. Evaluating Lisp")
(find-eev-quick-intro "3. Elisp hyperlinks")
M-j - to jump to certain predefined places. In particular,
`M-j' takes you to a buffer with basic help and a
list of jump targets. See:
(find-eev-quick-intro "7.2. The list of eejump targets")
`M-2 M-j' takes you to this help page.
`M-5 M-j' takes you to: (find-eev-quick-intro)
M-k - to go back. Mnemonic: "(k)ill buffer".
See: (find-eev-quick-intro "3. Elisp hyperlinks" "M-k")
M-K - to go back without killing the buffer.
See: (find-eval-intro "5. Going back")
(find-eval-intro "5. Going back" "`M-K' instead of `M-k'")
<f8> - See: (find-eev-quick-intro "6. Controlling shell-like programs")
M-T - See: (find-eev-quick-intro "6.3. Creating eepitch blocks: `M-T'")
The easiest way of creating "hyperlinks to here" is with:
M-x kl - See: (find-kl-here-intro "2. Try it!")
(find-kl-here-intro "3. Info")
M-x kll - See: (find-kl-here-intro "2. Try it!" "kll")
M-x kls - See: (find-kl-here-intro "4. `M-x kls'")
Here is an older way, more powerful but much harder to use:
M-h M-3 - (find-here-links-intro "4. `find-here-links-3'")
M-h M-1 - (find-here-links-intro "5. `find-here-links-1'")
M-h M-w - (find-here-links-intro "6. Copying the hyperlink" "M-h M-w")
The main keys for creating buffers with elisp hyperlinks are:
M-h M-h - `find-here-links': (find-eev-quick-intro "4.1. `find-here-links'")
M-h M-k - (find-eev-quick-intro "4.2. `find-ekey-links' and friends")
M-h M-f - (find-eev-quick-intro "4.2. `find-ekey-links' and friends")
M-h M-e - (find-audiovideo-intro "4.1. `find-extra-file-links'")
M-h M-p - (find-pdf-like-intro "9. Generating three pairs")
(find-pdf-like-intro "9. Generating three pairs" "M-h M-p")
See also: (find-links-intro "5. The first line regenerates the buffer")
The main keys for refining hyperlinks are:
M-h M-2 - `ee-duplicate-this-line'. See: (find-eval-intro "M-h M-2")
M-h M-y - `ee-yank-pos-spec'. See: (find-eval-intro "M-h M-y")
M-1 M-h M-w - copy the preceding tag to the kill ring
M-h M-- - shrink hyperlink to make it point to an anchor

2. Key sequences and how to abort them
See: (find-enode "Keys" "key sequence")
(find-enode "User Input" "Control-a" "C-a")
(find-enode "User Input" "<META> key")
(find-enode "Completion" "<TAB>")

3. Cutting & pasting
The "region" where cut & copy operate is always what is between
the "point" and the "mark":
(find-enode "Point")
(find-enode "Mark")
(find-enode "Shift Selection")
You can do cut, copy and paste by using the icons in the toolbar
or by using the menu bar (the relevant options are under
"Edit"), but the keys are worth learning:
C-SPC -- set-mark-command (find-enode "Setting Mark")
C-x C-x -- exchange-point-and-mark (find-enode "Setting Mark" "C-x C-x")
C-w -- kill-region (cut) (find-enode "Other Kill Commands")
M-w -- kill-ring-save (copy) (find-enode "Kill Ring")
C-y -- yank (paste) (find-enode "Kill Ring")
See: (find-enode "Tool Bars")
(find-enode "Menu Bar")
(find-eev-quick-intro "5.2. Cutting and pasting")
4. Moving point
C-a -- beginning-of-line (find-enode "Moving Point")
C-e -- end-of-line (find-enode "Moving Point")
M-< -- beginning-of-buffer (find-enode "Moving Point")
M-> -- end-of-buffer (find-enode "Moving Point")
5. Undoing
