Hi,

I have accidentaly found this combination of Ctrl + Left Mouse Click,
and I found it very useful. I have been using that every since I found
it out. It would be better if new users can find it out easily. One
way would be to add it to 'A guided tour of emacs' at 'Moving around
in buffers' section. Another way would be add an easily accessible
button.

Thanks
Praveen

Shouldn't there be a section explaining how to switch buffers?  That's
missing as far as I can tell.

Thanks,

(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately got no response at
the time.)

`C-mouse-1' here just opens the pop-up menu -- is that what you're
referring to here?

More information was requested, but no response was given within a
month, so I'm closing this bug report.  If the problem still exists,
please respond to this email and we'll reopen the bug report.
