@subsection Invoking @code{emacsclient}
To run the @code{emacsclient} program, specify file names as arguments,
-and optionally line numbers as well. Do it like this:
+and optionally line numbers as well, like this:
@example
emacsclient @r{@{}@r{[}+@var{line}@r{[}@var{column}@r{]}@r{]} @var{filename}@r{@}}@dots{}
Emacs sends a message to the @code{emacsclient} program telling it to
return.
+ If you invoke @code{emacsclient} for more than one file, the
+additional client buffers are buried at the bottom of the buffer list
+(@pxref{Buffers}). If you call @kbd{C-x #} after you are done editing
+a client buffer, the next client buffer is automatically selected.

But if you use the option @samp{-n} or @samp{--no-wait} when running
@code{emacsclient}, then it returns immediately. (You can take as
long as you like to edit the files in Emacs.)
- The option @samp{--alternate-editor=@var{command}} is useful when
-running @code{emacsclient} in a script. It specifies a command to run
-if @code{emacsclient} fails to contact Emacs. For example, the
-following setting for the @var{EDITOR} environment variable will

To enter Tumme, type @kbd{M-x tumme}. It prompts for a directory;
specify one that has images files. This creates thumbnails for all
the images in that directory, and displays them all in the ``thumbnail

files, and it asks for confirmation if the number of image files
exceeds @code{tumme-show-all-from-dir-max-files}.
