+This is the service type for configuring the Emacs text editor and
+running its daemon.
+
+Note that if you have an existing @file{~/.emacs} and/or
+@file{~/.emacs.d}, the configuration aspect of this service will
+not function, as they take precedence over @file{~/.config/emacs},
+which this service uses in the interest of cleanliness. To migrate
+to the XDG directory, run these commands:
+
+@example
+$ cp ~/.emacs.d $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/emacs
+$ cp ~/.emacs $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/emacs/init.el
