I got Learning GNU Emacs, Third Edition. And here’s the summary I learned from Chapter 1.
| Key Stroke | Command Name | Action |

C-x C-f |
find-file |
Find file and read it into a new buffer. |
C-x C-v |
find-alternate-file |
Read an alternate file, replacing the one you’ve done with C-x C-f |
C-x i |
insert-file |
Insert file at point position. |
M-> |
end-of-buffer |
Move point to the end of the buffer; leave mark at previous position. By being followed by C-x i you can append file. |
C-x C-s |

Exit Emacs with asking you if there are any un-saved buffer. But *scratch* is different. Even you’ve editted *scratch*, Emacs discard it silently. |
