Please can someone help a newbie?

I've not used linux in around 10 years, and I've spent a lot of time on morphine since then thanks to health issues, so my mind has pretty much forgotten everything.
I can remember cd commands to get into directories, and I can remember ls... but that's about it.


I've been following your guide to install Emacs. I've got it installed, but now I'm trying to switch the keyboard layout and it just doesn't seem to do anything.
It says to press function key and tab for escape... but I'm justlooking at the N900 keyboard and there is no function key or tab...

Can anyone help me?

I'm sorry for being so useless. I got the phone yesterday and I'm trying to get japanese / chinese language input.

ALso.. if anyone knows, will Emacs do Greek?
My parents live in Greece, so it'd be nice to learn a bit of Greek as well!

Oh and Tibetan as well... does it do that? I'm so new to all of this.
I went into the shop expecting to buy a Windows phone, and had been researching that extensively.. and I came home with a Linux phone!
I love it, totally love it, but wow it's got a learning curve!
