>> M-g c - goto-char
Huh? I'd never have expected someone to actually suggest an interactive key
binding for goto-char. But I now see that it even has a menu-bar entry.
What in the world for?
I also see that the docstring of goto-char is wrong. How about the
patch below?
> M-g b - goto-byte (non-existent yet)
That could make some sense. But post-22.
