emacs-nw - Man Page

emacs-nw [ command-line switches ] [ files ... ]

Fedora Linux includes several different builds of GNU Emacs, each using different graphical toolkits (or none at all).

The emacs-nw binary has no graphical display support, and can be run on a terminal only.  The package that contains it has many fewer dependencies on other packages, which can lead to significantly smaller installation sizes on servers without graphical environments.

Note that a favoured build can be selected using the alternatives system.
