I can adapt myself. I love how Emacs is created and many people
participated and participate in its creation and improvements. I am
myself alright, and I am also alright with many new things to learn
in Emacs. Just looking from a new user perspective, it is still my own
viewpoint with addition of my opinion how new user looks at it.
I have used Emacs since 1999. For many years I have not even been
aware of Dired. I have delivered computer courses back in
1990-1992. And I have delivered few GNU free software seminars in
Germany. And all the time I have been using mostly Rox file manager of
Midnight Commander, in the shell. I was not aware of dired, not at
all. Emacs was for editing.
If I open a file, where in the Tools says "File manager" -- but it
should in my opinion. It is just in recent years that I became heavy
user of dired, as I have extended my personal use to varieties that I
could not implement in any other file manager.
I am old but new user. So for me it was not easily accessible to
discover Dired in so many years. And I program myself all the last 21
years.
File menu has no such "File manager" menu. Of course I know today that
I can open directory and I am in dired, but I was opening directory
even before, and I did not know that I am in dired, all I knew is that
I can open file for editing, that is what I knew.
That is one example.
Unspoken from the fact that I can use Emacs similar to the shell, as
the main window to all of my computing needs. Nobody explained me
that, I had to discover it myself and understand what other people are
speaking about it. That I find so powerful.
