This user reports a problem with the TUTORIAL.fr.  I can't access
savannah at the moment, but the fault is also present in my 2003-07-08
checkout of GNU Emacs.

Command "M-e" moves forward to the end of a sentence.  In
order to be recognized as the end of a sentence, the ending
period, question mark, or exclamation point must be followed
by two spaces.

Unfortunately, in the french tutorial no ending period is
followed by two spaces.  This makes the command "M-e"
impossible to test although the french reader is invited to
do so:

>> Tapez quelques C-a et quelques C-e.
   Puis tapez quelques M-a et quelques M-e.

Could it be that the tutorial's translator did not even test
the tutorial himself?
