Hello,

rluser.texi, starting from line 281, @subsection Readline Arguments states

The general way to pass numeric arguments to a command is to type meta
digits before the command.  If the first `digit' typed is a minus
sign (@samp{-}), then the sign of the argument will be negative.  Once
you have typed one meta digit to get the argument started, you can type
the remainder of the digits, and then the command.  For example, to give
the @kbd{C-d} command an argument of 10, you could type @samp{M-1 0 C-d},
which will delete the next ten characters on the input line.

Please replace the last two lines with

the @kbd{C-d} command an argument of 10, you could type @samp{M-1 0 C-d}
or @samp{M-1 M-0 C-d}, which will delete the next ten characters on the
input line.

Motivation:

-- this indicates, that once a "META-DIGIT" is entered, it does not matter if the subsequent digits are also entered by keeping the META key pressed or if the key is released,
-- the change on the second last line is removal of the final comma
