Tutorial: "redefined" prefix key

Tutorial: "redefined" prefix key

[David Reitter]

The tutorial nicely informs the user when some key bindings deviate  
from those mentioned.

However, what's strange is that it thinks that a prefix key has been  
rebound. Here's what the *Help* buffer says (when one clicks "more"):

> The default Emacs binding for the key C-x is the command
> `Control-X-prefix'.  However, your customizations have rebound it to

> . switch-to-buffer-here))'.  (For the more advanced user: This binding

`one-buffer-one-frame-mode' is a minor mode that defines  the  
following key map:

(keymap
  (24 keymap
      (C-S-left . previous-buffer-here)
      (C-S-right . next-buffer-here)
      (S-left . previous-buffer-here)
      (S-right . next-buffer-here)
      (33554434 . list-buffers-here)
      (66 . switch-to-buffer-here)))

These bindings are defined with

(define-key one-buffer-one-frame-mode-map [(control x) (shift b)]
   'switch-to-buffer-here)
...etc...


Also note that M-x Control-X-prefix doesn't exist.

Addendum, this was in reference to the help text that suggests this  
as a substitute for C-x:

   Standard Key   Command                     In Your Emacs
    C-x 		  Control-X-prefix	      M-x Control-X-prefix more info

Needless to say, C-x has not been rebound and works just fine in my  
Emacs.
