Subject: [PATCH 11/14] etc/tutorials/TUTORIAL: Complete instructions by
	telling the user to move the cursor
Date: Wed, 13 Jun 2012 00:17:31 -0000
Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2012 03:47:39 +0000

The original text is unclear, because it doesn't tell the user that it is
necessary to place the cursor on a particular line.
