An idea for : expand M-x doctor to answer to simple questions
such as:

- how can I open the help guide
- how can I save a file
- how can I comment a block of code

pointing to the Texinfo page as an Elisp link.

And so on. No, no LLM's required, please. If did something
like this in the 60's with Moon rock classification queries,
(with another Lisp sytem) so can you.

EDIT: typos.

    I wish the project in R7RS suceeds. Emacs is not bad *but*
    I'd prefer a native written in not for Elisp (which is like
    having something between and Lisp). Having to switch back
    and forth between languages it's tiring
    (and yes, I know CL well enough to learn Elisp
    like nothing, but if I'm under an Scheme environment, I want the same
    Lisp flavour everywhere.

    With and Common Lisp the divergence is not that huge (SLIME), but
    for it's far more integrated.

    Said this, if the project rewrote Emacs under Common Lisp with
    Clisp (for instance, in the 90's, porting Emacs' related code with
    subprojects) today we would have something much more powerful than LEM
    under SBCL.
    Richard Stallman doesn't like Common Lisp, he prefers the simplicity
    of Elisp, but yet he agrees on having Emacs itself using cl-lib (CL
    compat library for Elisp) on *tons* of core utilities and functions:

      Uhm, on 32 bit in Clozure CommonLisp (ccl):

      (log (1+ most-positive-fixnum) 2)
      29.0

      2^29 -1 = most-positive-fixnum in CCL

      , 32 bit, compiled with --wide-int:

      (log (1+ most-positive-fixnum) 2)
      61.0

      2^61 -1 = most-positive-fixnum in Elisp

      Still, CL allows far more precision
      than other languages:

      CCL:

      (expt most-positive-fixnum 16)
      47634101215830029620862168293282105755619681803746312443773447750728239466188107611533078255091639820167255564829090159750828898191472066561

      Elisp: totally wrong result.

      Proof for CCL on correctness:

      (log (expt (1+ most-positive-fixnum) 16) 2)
      464.0

            was always been a hidden attempt to destroy and
            libre software in order to be a test base for its technologies (C#
            it's the best case). GTK it's doomed. Forever. It's just a /MS
            backend today to test touch interfaces and semi-native
            desktop software, you are basically betatesting
            modern software desktop with it.

            /#Plasma it's just a test suite for /#qt6
            in order to get professional developers for QT which is very propietarily
            supported.

            Now, the only true libre environment from these corporations left
            could be , the *original* supposted-to-be
            desktop environment, not GNOME.

            It might look old, rusty, forgotten, sightly enhanced NeXTStep/OpenStep
            clone AKA 's dad, but it can look a bit modern with some themes.

            This is from the 2010's I think, so it's kinda 'retro' today,
            but far better than the default NeXT theme from the 90's.

            A least you will be sure that no one would need to adapt it
            for coporation purposes.

            There's even an GNUStep UI port for it, which is for sure the base
            for all the Emacs out there for .
