It's the only "emacs clone" I've ever seen that actually feels like
real emacs (except the lack of slowness) for real editing tasks. The
rest only look like emacs superficially, although jmacs (from joe) and
qemacs (Fabrice Bellard) are somewhat close but still feel like
semi-emacs-like bindings on a foreign editor.
