    TUTORIAL: "buffer" vs "file" consistency; capitalize Dired
    
    * etc/tutorials/TUTORIAL: For consistency with C-x s ("save some
    buffers") and for accuracy, describe C-x C-s as "Save buffer to
    file"), and then C-x s as "Save some buffers to their files"
    (bug#39359).  Also capitalize "Dired".

 Completion is a way to avoid unnecessary typing.  For instance, if you
