 +As noted earlier, **//Emacs//** exports a
 +large number of functions to for interactive use.  Some of
 +these, like those opening and saving files, are mapped to keys.
 +Others (like the ones for moving to the beginning and end of
 +lines) are not.  To call them, you have to invoke them.  Say we
 +want to call the function //"end-of-line"// We would do
 +this:
 +
 +
 +**M-x** end-of-line <key>Enter</key>
 +
 +
 +And the cursor would move to the end of the line, as the function name
 +suggests.
