We can't do it. Which place? Please explain. There is *no* functional difference between thai-forward-ward and forward-word except that the former works for Thai also (it simply checks whether point is located on a Thai character, then it starts a lexical word search to find the end of the current Thai word). BTW, exactly the same machinery as in thai-word.el could be used for word search in Lao -- provided someone finds a free Lao word list. Werner
