Semi-unhelpful error message given when trying to (provide 'CUA-mode)

[Alan Mackenzie]

Afternoon, Emacs!

In Emacs-22.0.50, if you try to load a legacy cua-mode.el (or whatever),
an eval-after-load form tells you to set the CUA option via the menu.
This is useful only to users who have a mouse and like using it.

For the benefit of other users, M-x cua-mode should also be mentioned.
