In Lesson 7.3: COMPLETION it is stated that

 3. Type the start of a command:  :e

  4. Press  CTRL-D  and Vim will show a list of commands that start with "e".

  5. Press <TAB>  and Vim will complete the command name to ":edit".

When I type :e and press tab, I see the command line completed to "earlier" not
"edit". The 5th step needs to be changed to something like

 5. Press <TAB>  and Vim will complete the command name to the first
command(when alphabetically listed in the shell) starting with e

Please report this at vim-dev as other distributions most likely need
the same changes. Thanks !
