Happy Resurrection Day, Andrew and all.
While reading the following instructions, I noticed something peculiar that needs some clarification.

I would normally try to accomplish this using end to reach the end of the file and the left-arrow to backtrack through any blank space at the end of the audio. Needless to say, this method often does not work. Is there a qualitative difference between using K versus end to skip to a file's end, and between using the left-arrow or comma to navigate backwards 3 seconds?
