Dear all,
I think the following statement
,----[ (info "(emacs)Basic Indent") ]
| When entering lines of new code, use `C-j' (`newline-and-indent'),
| which is equivalent to <RET> followed by <TAB>. `C-j' at the end of a
| line creates a blank line and then gives it the appropriate indentation.
`----
is not quite correct. There's a slight difference between "C-j at the
end of a line" and "<RET> followed by <TAB>": The function
'newline-and-indent' eats up trailing whitespace while <RET> <TAB> does
not.
My proposal is to mention this fact in the documentation.
