Hello!

Since I spend most of my day on the bus, I have a lot of time to read. Do you have any book recommendations for learning Emacs? I plan to use Emacs as a text editor for note taking and programming in general.

    ‘Mastering Emacs’ is a very highly regarded resource; & it might be the only one that fits your requirements – it’s laid out as a book that you can read from cover to cover: https://www.masteringemacs.org/

    Needles to say, though, that for the concepts discussed in the book to sink in, reading alone wouldn’t suffice.

      I know it’s not just about reading. I also try to do my daily work with Emacs. Thanks for the suggestion!
