I'm saying it's not because it has stuff like text editor, games even email client built-in (need confirmation never seriously used emacs), if it's only a scripting + text UI engine and offering all other apps as optional plugins then I'd agree it's "doing one thing".
- dmortin 6y ago> games even email client built-in These are plugins which are loaded on demand. So if you never use them, then they are not loaded into the platform.
- bitwize 6y agoI'd say facilities for text editing (buffers, kill rings, etc.) are built in, but nearly everything else -- the different modes for programming languages, games, mail, web, and IRC clients, etc, are all in Emacs Lisp.
