+   a wide-range of file types</li>
+   <li>Complete built-in documentation, including a tutorial for new users</li>
+   <li>Full Unicode support for nearly all human languages and their scripts</li>
+   <li>Highly customizable, using Emacs Lisp code or a graphical interface</li>
+   <li>Includes a project planner, mail and news reader, debugger
+   interface, calendar, and more</li>
