The OP was looking for a quick lookup programmers guide to common elisp constructs. The elisp manual is not really quite so convenient : good though it can be. People frequently want to modify an existing feature without learning the entire emacs infrastructure. Pointing to existing code is one such way to help. Suggesting he parse it all with perl probably not quite so helpful .. Personally whenever I revisit elisp I find Xah Lee's tutorial helpful at times. Look at me! I can challenge a knowledgeable contributor! (One whose depth of knowledge is clearly illustrated in the archives.) One day you'll get off the fence and know your limitations as a contributor or as a troll and become decidedly one or the other. My guess is that you need a role model that is a better fit than Xah.
