Hi SimpleCode;
I am a newbie as well. There are lots of tutorials around, but the one
that did the most for me was:
http://www.linuxselfhelp.com/gnu/emacs-lisp-intro/html_mono/emacs-lisp-intro.html
For two years I learnt emacs by rote and by copying. Everything I tried
to do lead to errors and frustration. It has taken me 5 or 6
intermittent hours of following the text and trying the few samples in
the emacs-lisp-intro to finally get it. The intro is well written,
clear and covers the main concepts at a learnable pace. Now that I
understand basic concepts of how emacs and lisp work, I love it.
The site mentioned above is an HTML version of the GNU emacs-lisp intro
-- take your pick; the content is the same.
