First thing to learn is that Emacs isn't a word processor (yet),
it is just a text editor -- but the best one, IMHO.
If you want strict M$ Word compatibility, go for WordPerfect,
Applix or StarOffice. There are alternatives even more capable than
Word, like LyX and LaTeX or even SGML -- but they will not be
compatible!

As someone already pointed out, Micro$oft makes a point of
never using an available standard...
