Subject: Unclarity in the emacs tutorial.


>From the emacs tutorial for version 18.49 of emacs:

   See how repeated C-a's do nothing, but repeated M-a's keep moving
   farther.  Do you think that this is right?

No.  I don't particularly think it's right, but since I'm the one
learning about this, I don't understand why you're asking me.  This is
unclear and either needs more explanation or needs to go away.

Sincerely,

Amanda Klein,
Emacs Student
