Is there any one using Emacs Lisp? Can you tell me how to interpretably run
a Lisp line, e.g., (+ 1 2)?

In a buffer in lisp-interaction-mode (such as the *scratch* buffer
that you get by default), type the expression and press line-feed
(C-j).

Alternatively, use M-:

O'Reilly's Emacs book has what looks like quite a nice section on Emacs
Lisp.

The Free Software Foundation publishes "Programming in Emacs Lisp - An
Introduction", by Robert Chassell.  It's rather basic, but explains
things very clearly.  I got my copy from Borders, but you can get it
for free online at
http://www.fsf.org/manual/emacs-lisp-intro/emacs-lisp-intro.html

Go to the *scratch* buffer and you can send forms with C-j. Also try
C-M-x.

C-x C-e is also pretty cool, which works in most any mode.

M-x ielm seems to bring up an interactive window (just like your lisp
environment)...
