 4.3 The Definition of ‘mark-whole-buffer’
 =========================================
 
 The ‘mark-whole-buffer’ function is no harder to understand than the
 ‘simplified-beginning-of-buffer’ function.  In this case, however, we
 will look at the complete function, not a shortened version.
 
    The ‘mark-whole-buffer’ function is not as commonly used as the
 ‘beginning-of-buffer’ function, but is useful nonetheless: it marks a
 whole buffer as a region by putting point at the beginning and a mark at
 the end of the buffer.  It is generally bound to ‘C-x h’.
