How about just ditching the computer and working with pen and ink?

Or maybe as a more moderate course, be careful to write a .emacs that
works universally? This might be more or less challenging, but I
think it is a good goal for participants in the emacswiki .emacs
project to keep in mind. At least say whether the code is *designed*
to work on any Emacs or whether it is hand-crafted for some specific
setup.

C-h k <string> will tell you where your keystrokes are defined,
from there it shouldn't be too hard to track down the source of
the problems you find. You can always delete code you don't
understand if you think it is causing you trouble.
