+ Most of the GNU Emacs text editor is written in the programming
+ language called Emacs Lisp. You can write new code in Emacs Lisp and
+ install it as an extension to the editor. However, Emacs Lisp is more
+ than a mere ``extension language''; it is a full computer programming
+ language in its own right. You can use it as you would any other
+ programming language.
+
+ Because Emacs Lisp is designed for use in an editor, it has special
+ features for scanning and parsing text as well as features for handling
+ files, buffers, displays, subprocesses, and so on. Emacs Lisp is
+ closely integrated with the editing facilities; thus, editing commands
+ are functions that can also conveniently be called from Lisp programs,
+ and parameters for customization are ordinary Lisp variables.
+
+ This manual describes Emacs Lisp. Generally speaking, the earlier
+ chapters describe features of Emacs Lisp that have counterparts in
+ many programming languages, and later chapters describe features that
+ are peculiar to Emacs Lisp or relate specifically to editing.
