Display type:		SM

What were you trying to do?
	Wanted to mark #* files for deletion

What's wrong:
	C-h m help told me that "#" would do it:
Type # to flag temporary files (names beginning with #) for Deletion.
	but it doesn't.  Typing # will mark #*# (names beginning and ending
	with #) for deletion.

What should have happened:
	The help information should be correct.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	Not sure where emacs help comes from....
