First, please put your question in the body of the message. It makes
reading and replying easier.

Now, to attempt to answer your question: everything. Emacs Lisp is used
for extending, customizing, and implementing Emacs. Most of Emacs
itself is written in Emacs Lisp. Emacs users use Emacs Lisp to
customize their Emacs (setting variables and writing functions in their
.emacs file, typically) and add new features to it. Software developers
use Emacs Lisp to write new packages adding additional features and
capabilities to Emacs.

Circling back to emacs, I can remember emacs users proposing a keyboard
with foot pedals for the control and alt keys.

There is emacs-versor which is a specialized navigating mode done with
this setup in mind, it also allows for joystick ediditing(somewhat
experimental at the moment, but improving)

I like it. Maybe we could also get a button you hit with your forehead
for parentheses. That way I'd probably get better at touch typing the
things. I'm sure my current parentheses skill and lisp are one day going
to result in nasal demons.
