Ok. Is there something remarkable about mouse usage other than click-and-drag
to select a region? (I don't really use the mouse in Emacs.)

Good point. I will trim some key binding mentions.
Previous suggestions which were made:
* Mention help features earlier
I now mention the manual close to the beginning, and function documentation
right after the section on editing commands.
* Emphasize Emacs as a coding environment
There are now screenshots of GDB, compile, grep, and shell, and further
information about what programming major modes can do.
Again, the draft is at:
<http://stuff.mit.edu/iap/emacs/emacs-guided-tour-1.html>
If no one objects, I will ask the webmasters to replace the version on gnu.org
with this soon.
