M-. M-. C-b C-f C-u 1 M-.' will yank three words to > the left of point and one word to the right of it. Repeating `M-.' many times to find the necessary thing to yank doesn't seem very convenient. What do you think about using `M-.' as a prefix key? E.g. `M-. s' - yank symbol at point to the minibuffer `M-. u' - yank URL at point `M-. w' - yank word at point `M-. c' - yank character at point -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
