Sure, these are what I can think of so far that can improve the
editing experience of a newcomer to emacs. Please feel free to make
comment on and edit this list.
* List of interesting editing packages
Builtin packages can may benifit anyone who expecting some features
from other editors.
** EDT
It would be strange to consider EDT as "modern", that thing is
probably as old as TECO. But this could still be useful if you have
a keypad. You may get the manual about EDT from the internet.
Probably useful link: http://edt-text-editor.sourceforge.net
** hl-line
Toggled via =hl-line-mode=. Might be useful for VI user's.
** cua-mode
Undo, Cut, Copy, Paste.
** autoarg-mode
Make numberic arguments as prefix commands. Might be useful for
VI addicted.
*PS: This one probably needs fixes, binding C-DIGIT to
`self-insert-command' won't make it insert DIGIT.*
** delete-selection-mode
When Delete Selection mode is enabled, typed text replaces the
selection if the selection is active.
** align, delimit-columns-region
"Align regions in a context-sensitive fashion."
"Helps to prettify columns in a text region or rectangle."
** auto-revert-mode
Update buffer when file changes.
** ruler-mode
Something you'd get in a word processor.
** whitespace-mode
And =whitespace-cleanup=.
** tab-bar-mode, tab-line-mode
Tabbar emulation.
** mouse-avoidance-mode
Hide your mouse pointer.
** kinsoku
Avoid certain characters appear at beg-of-line..
** strokes-mode
Useful if you have a 3-key mouse.
* List of interesting editing customize variables
This variables are worth to have a look at. They may improve your
editing experience a little if the default value of the variables
are changed for your specific needs.
+ show-trailing-whitespace
+ track-eol
+ colon-double-space
+ tab-always-indent
+ kill-do-not-save-duplicates
+ kill-read-only-ok
+ kill-whole-line
+ set-mark-command-repeat-pop
+ case-fold-search
