Thank you for freely providing this tutorial - I've enjoyed working through it. We emacs guys always need to keep learning. :)

On page "Go to start/end of line, 0 and $'" pressing the '$' key shows the cursor blinking at the end of the line, past the final character. Here is a screen recording showing the behavior:

'$' moves past last character

But that's the actual vi/vim behavior, where '$' places the cursor on the last character of the line, not past it. I found this confusing and I wondered if it might affect others.
