to emacs self documenting facilities.
In this case, I used `C-h f' move-end-of-line:
,----
| move-end-of-line is an interactive compiled Lisp function in
| `simple.el'.
|
| It is bound to C-e, <end>.
|
| (move-end-of-line ARG)
|
| For more information check the manuals.
|
! Move point to end of current line as displayed.
! With argument ARG not nil or 1, move forward ARG - 1 lines first.
| If point reaches the beginning or end of buffer, it stops there.
|
| To ignore the effects of the `intangible' text or overlay
| property, bind `inhibit-point-motion-hooks' to t.
| If there is an image in the current line, this function
| disregards newlines that are part of the text on which the image
| rests.
`----
So we need an arg, (move-end-of-line nil) should do.
What is the advantage of this approach to google?
a) Faster: Its all there, already. I can type `C-h f' faster
than my browser starts up.
b) Up to date: There is lots of stuff on the net, but
believe it or not, emacs changes. The build in
documentation is always uptodate, or at least
up to the date you are using now.
c) See the source: With a single <ret> on "in `simple.el', you
get the source of the function. If you want to learn
elisp, just go and browse ;).
Well, there are other benefits, but those seem to me the most potent
ones.

P.S: (info "(emacs) Help Summary") <--- C-x C-e here
is a good starting point.
