Note that “ asdasd” has a space at the beginning, and it needs to be the last line of the buffer.
Evaluate the first three expressions, place the text cursor at the end of the buffer (that is, after “asd”).
The line should be highlighted. Now press `left’ (or do M-x left-char).
Point will jump to the beginning of the line.
Expected behavior is that it would move by just one char.

Subject: cursor movement error

When pressing the left arrow key when global-hl-line-mode is enabled and the cursor is at the very end of the buffer (no characters following it, including \n) and there is a space earlier in the line, instead of moving left a single characacter, the cursor moves a whole word.
To replicate this:
1. Start aquamacs without customizations.
2. M-x global-hl-line-mode.
3. Type " testing" (note space before the word "testing").
4. Press left arrow key once.
At this point the cursor is to the left of the space character before the word "testing" instead of before the letter "g".
