argument. @key{M--} starts a negative argument.
@item universal-argument ()
-Each time this is executed, the argument count is multiplied by four.
+This is another way to specify an argument.
+If this command is followed by one or more digits, optionally with a
+leading minus sign, those digits define the argument.
+If the command is followed by digits, executing @code{universal-argument}
+again ends the numeric argument, but is otherwise ignored.
+As a special case, if this command is immediately followed by a
+character that is neither a digit or minus sign, the argument count
+for the next command is multiplied by four.
The argument count is initially one, so executing this function the
-first time makes the argument count four. By default, this is not
-bound to a key.
+first time makes the argument count four, a second time makes the
+argument count sixteen, and so on.
+By default, this is not bound to a key.
