[[[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider    ]]]
[[[ whether defending the US Constitution against all enemies,     ]]]
[[[ foreign or domestic, requires you to follow Snowden's example. ]]]

man -k editor  does not list Emacs.  I think it is because
the heading line of the Emacs man page does not say "editor".
Could someone please fix that, and ack?
