Oh,I see.
I think that we have some misunderstanding.
The tutorial is much more about howto use emacs,not how to configure emacs.
I mean how to change the configure file, how to add parameters or functions to configure emacs.

Emacs is neither beautiful nor easy to use, nor is it likely ever to be. What it is, is, very powerful and contains enough stuff to keep you busy for years. Once you learn it you can do your work very quickly. If you really want to do fancy stuff in Emacs you can write functions in LISP.

A couple of editors that are more appealing from the GUI standpoint are SCITE and Nedit, in that order.

And you can try xemacs for a slightly different GUI look. In fact, you might want to look at how they (the xemacs developers) went about it.
