NOTE: For emacs 19, use the file xlispstat19.el instead of xlispstat.el

The exls shell script runs xlispstat.beta under GNU emacs. This
provides parenthesis matching and indentation, by hitting the tab key.
Two things may take some getting used to:

	control characters, such as C-c (<CONTROL>-c), need an extra C-c
	prefix. The main ones are

		C-c C-c		interrupt (two C-c's instead of one)
		C-c C-d		eof to quit (or use (exit))
		C-c C-u		kill input line

	xterm scrolling is not available, but you can scrollusing emacs
	commands (here M-x means <ESCAPE> x):

		M-v	back one screen
		C-v	forward one screen
		M-<	to beginning of buffer
		M->	to end of buffer
		
		C-p	previous line
		C-n	next line
		C-f	forward one character
		C-b	backward one character

There are many other command available, but these should do for starters.
A few emergency hints:

	If you accidentally hit some key combination that confuses emacs, 
	C-g will usually fix things again.

	If the screen is split into several windows, C-xo moves to the next
	window. C-x1 deletes all but the current window.

	If all else fails, C-x C-c should kill emacs and let you out
