Learn Emacs / Slime The Hard way (from 10 years Vim)

This is a real question, not intended to start a fiery war.

I have been using Vim for over 10 years; watching people use Emacs / Slime ... made me decide to learn Emacs / Slime.

I want to speed up as fast as fast:

  • there's a bunch of finger macros that I instinctively do - I want to find the equivalent in Emacs / Slime and retrain

  • Since I am familiar with Clojure, writing an elisp configuration will not be a problem (minus dynamic vars)

What should I read / remember?

EDIT: mind you, I tried VimClojure and decided that I like Slime / Swank more.

When I study a new editor (or tool of any kind), at that moment when I do not know how to do something (for example, "Save file"), I will answer Google, then do it, 3x .

In Emacs, save the Cx Cs file. Each time you cannot remember what it is, do it three times. This will become the second nature VERY fast.

Never be fooled because you are in a hurry or lazy. Examine each command as you need, and repeat it until it becomes a “macro finger”.
