perhaps something specific I saw a while ago was a cheat card that gave shortcuts for using emacs (I think?). maybe something like this, that can help me understand the directory structure of Trisquel.

Still no success on the IME front. I found "Writing non-Latin languages" (via "All Manuals") and followed the advice. I successfully installed both ibus-hangul and fcitx-hangul with all their dependencies (as well as nabi). Trisquel's manual page says: "After that, you would press Ctrl+Space

I've tried to mount the Guest Addition CDROM image. But VirtualBox said that this ISO was not included in the main binary package (released under GPL v2). If I wanted to use it I had to download it first. Since the ISO image is not released as part of the GPL v2 licensed package, I suspect

@nadebula.1984 Thank you for your advice - I think I understand your points. In any case, it's also relevant for my learning curve to know why the ISO is not showing up (as it should and as it did on other Debian-based distros). If you could shed some light on that it would be great.

It's a good idea to start studying GNU/Linux in VMs. And you have chosen a good hypervisor for Windows. VirtualBox is almost free/libre as well as beginner-friendly. In my practice, I'd also like to suggest beginners that they start with VirtualBox. If the Guest Addition ISO file is include
