  78 This manual contains detailed information about various features that
  79 are too specialized to be included in the printed Emacs manual.  It is
  80 intended to be readable by anyone having a basic knowledge of Emacs.
  81 However, certain sections may be intended for a more specialized
  82 audience, such as Elisp authors.  This should be clearly pointed out
  83 at the beginning of these sections.
  84
  85 Certain packages, or collections of related features, have their own
  86 manuals, separate from the main Emacs User's manual.  This manual is
  87 intended as a complement, rather than an alternative, to reading those
  88 additional manuals; in a nutshell, it is a collection of smaller
  89 specialized features, too small or too obscure to justify their own
  90 manual.
  91
  92 Sections intended specifically for Elisp programmers can follow the
  93 style of the Elisp manual.  Other sections should follow the style of
  94 the Emacs manual.
