+Spontaneous Entry to Incremental Search
+---------------------------------------
+
+ If Emacs spontaneously displays `I-search:' at the bottom of the
+screen, it means that the terminal is sending `C-s' and `C-q' according
+to the poorly designed xon/xoff "flow control" protocol. You should
+try to prevent this by putting the terminal in a mode where it will not
+use flow control, or by giving it enough padding that it will never
+send a `C-s'. If that cannot be done, you must tell Emacs to expect
+flow control to be used, until you can get a properly designed terminal.
+
+ Information on how to do these things can be found in the file
+`INSTALL' in the Emacs distribution.

+
+Emergency Escape
+----------------
+
+ Because at times there have been bugs causing Emacs to loop without
+checking `quit-flag', a special feature causes Emacs to be suspended
+immediately if you type a second `C-g' while the flag is already set,
+so you can always get out of XEmacs. Normally Emacs recognizes and
+clears `quit-flag' (and quits!) quickly enough to prevent this from
+happening.
+
+ When you resume Emacs after a suspension caused by multiple `C-g', it
+asks two questions before going back to what it had been doing:
+
+ Auto-save? (y or n)
+ Abort (and dump core)? (y or n)
+
+Answer each one with `y' or `n' followed by <RET>.
+
+ Saying `y' to `Auto-save?' causes immediate auto-saving of all
+modified buffers in which auto-saving is enabled.
+
+ Saying `y' to `Abort (and dump core)?' causes an illegal instruction
+to be executed, dumping core. This is to enable a wizard to figure out
+why Emacs was failing to quit in the first place. Execution does not
+continue after a core dump. If you answer `n', execution does
+continue. With luck, Emacs will ultimately check `quit-flag' and quit
+normally. If not, and you type another `C-g', it is suspended again.
+
+ If Emacs is not really hung, but is just being slow, you may invoke
+the double `C-g' feature without really meaning to. In that case,
+simply resume and answer `n' to both questions, and you will arrive at
+your former state. Presumably the quit you requested will happen soon.
+
+ The double-`C-g' feature may be turned off when Emacs is running
+under a window system, since the window system always enables you to
+kill Emacs or to create another window and run another program.

+Help for Total Frustration
+--------------------------
+
+ If using Emacs (or something else) becomes terribly frustrating and
+none of the techniques described above solve the problem, Emacs can
+still help you.
+
+ First, if the Emacs you are using is not responding to commands, type
+`C-g C-g' to get out of it and then start a new one.
+
+ Second, type `M-x doctor <RET>'.
+
+ The doctor will make you feel better. Each time you say something to
+the doctor, you must end it by typing <RET> <RET>. This lets the
+doctor know you are finished.
