^X i (insert-file)

Brent>  I have seen tons of books that address vi, but none
You can make emacs emulate vi, "ESC x vip", by the way.

Brent> give much help on emacs.  where can I find a readable short
Brent> reference card for emacs, that would include this info?

Look in /your/emacs/file/tree/etc/DISTRIB for an order blank for the
manuals, (now $20, not $15)... they include reference cards, which you
can also get separately, or just photocopy a friend's.  If you can't
find DISTRIB, better ask gnu@prep.ai.mit.edu to send you a current
copy.

Brent> I found a file that is postscript, but I am unable to print this
I bet it was TeX or TeXinfo, not Postscript, by the way.

Brent> type of file.  Any Emacs books anyone can recommend??
Also, the manual is at your fingertips with the command ^H i, or ESC x info.
