 character alternative.  A completely different set of characters is
 special inside character alternatives: @samp{]}, @samp{-} and @samp{^}.
 
-To include a @samp{]} in a character alternative, you must make it the
-first character.  For example, @samp{[]a]} matches @samp{]} or @samp{a}.
-To include a @samp{-}, write @samp{-} as the first or last character of
-the character alternative, or put it after a range.  Thus, @samp{[]-]}
-matches both @samp{]} and @samp{-}.  (As explained below, you cannot
-use @samp{\]} to include a @samp{]} inside a character alternative,

 the beginning.
