Fun/custom DMIS

For those of us that don't know... Please explain what they are.

I'll tag a YT video of someone better explaining it than I ever will... here's my short version:

Way back in the day... some time before Linux, Windows, MacOS, people didn't have a graphical interface and mouse. When typing things in a text editor they made use of key bindings to jump around text like Ctrl-a to move to the beginning of a line or Alt-f to move forward a word... to name a few.

I mainly use Emacs for notes/organization, alternative to windows dos and explorer, write code for various languages outside of Pc-Dmis to name a few. I can do a bunch quickly without ever leaving the keyboard no matter the file size or complexity of syntax.

as promised a video it's a bit lengthy but covers most of the basics. Emacs is a lifetime text editor.

Installation is free and available here: https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/emacs-27/
Easiest choice is: emacs-27.1-x86_64-installer.exe

I've replicated as much as I possibly could in PcDmis to replicate the Emacs environment as, again, I am most comfortable and quickest in it. Took me a bit but worth it in the end for me.
