Why not use X? that is waaaay simpler...

XEmacs is much easier than Emacs, thanks to the menus and the toolbar,
but 
the configuration is not an easy thing to do, but with some patience
it's
possible to get a very easy to work with setup, that is also very fast.
But if you are in console, then you don't get the menus or toolbar, so
that
might reduce your liking of XEmacs, I know I dislike it when not in X
;).

make that unixusers, and if any of us get offended then I'd say he/she
isn't quite cut to help people out, and they pretty much should just
shut
up and do something else (like making nice images).
