-If you type <ESC> <ESC>, you get a new window appearing on
-the screen, telling you that M-ESC is a "disabled command"
-and asking whether you really want to execute it. The command
-M-ESC is marked as disabled because you probably don't want to
-use it until you know more about Emacs, and we expect it would
-confuse you if it were allowed to go ahead and run. If you really
-want to try the M-ESC command, you could type a Space in answer
-to the question and M-ESC would go ahead. Normally, if you do
-not want to execute M-ESC, you would type "n" to answer the question.
