2.5.3 Prefix arguments

Editor commands can be supplied with an integer argument which sometimes alters the effect of that command. In most cases it means the at the command is repeated that many times. This argument is known as a prefix argument as it is supplied before the command to which it is to be applied. Prefix arguments sometimes have no effect on a command.
