<dfn>numeric argument</dfn> by using Emacs's <dfn>universal
argument</dfn> command. Type <kbd>C-u </kbd><var>n</var>, where <var>n</var> is
the number of times to repeat a command. If no number
<var>n</var> is provided, Emacs will repeat the command 4 times
by default. See <a href="../emacs/Arguments.html#Arguments">Numeric Arguments</a>.
