Sigh. I'm not sure you know what "command line" means.
% runtime show cur >/dev/null
0.120 sec
% runtime emacs -nw -f save-buffers-kill-emacs
5.053 sec
Emacs is not a command line interface. Although I often use Emacs to
read a buch of messages, I don't feel like taking 42 times too long to
read just *one* message. Advocating emacs to an emacs user, when he
happens to want a CLI, is pretty darned annoying.
