no. i did mean Ctrol-e and what i expected is go to the end of current
line. in my example, the Ctrol-e always moves cursor to end of the next
line. but if i split a statement into more than one lines, such as
(setq a
1)
Ctrol-e will work normally. i do not know why.

for this case, the M-C-e in my system always goes to the begining of
the next line which immediately below the ending line of the function!
