For = example, if I=20 say
 
   emacs=20 +10 foo bar
 
the = cursor shows up=20 in bar, at line 1 not 10. But if I say
 
   emacs=20 +10 foo +10 bar
 
then the=20 cursor does show up at line 10 of file bar. Seems like the right = behavior, but=20 it seems to me the man page should mention this under +n.  
 
Also, the man (at least = the version=20 here page points to bug-gnu-emacs@prep.ai.mit.e= du.
 
This = is emacs=20 21.2.4, btw.
 
Thanks!
