  > I am Ramkumar from India, one of the greatest fans of GNU Emacs. The

  > Most of the Emacs users require a minimalistic version that can handle the

  > The version can
  > 1) include all text editing options, like syntax highlighting for all
  > codes,org-mode,  buffers, splits, calculator etc ..
  > 2) can ignore other options like, mail, games, calendar, spreadsheet, etc..
  > hence lightening it

Could you explain to me how this pruned-down would be preferable
for some users?  If I may assume that you are one of those users,
how would it be better for you?
