Description

It takes me a lot of time to understand what a paragraph is. It turns out the explanation is (very) hidden in Editor Classes > text% > last-line, which states:

See also paragraph-start-position, which operates on paragraphs (determined by explicit newline characters) instead of lines (determined by both explicit newline characters and automatic line-wrapping).

It would be really nice if paragraph is deftech-ed in the overview and explained there instead.
