[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
 Currently, pressing the key combination Ctrl-b only states Beginning of buffer. But new users could benefit from also knowing quickly which buffer they are currently editing, so perhaps a phrase like: Beginning of buffer <buffername.extension>, such as: Beginning of buffer mygreatnovel.org could be more helpful to novices?

Just a suggestion,
All the best.
