As I see, these are two separate features: M-left/M-right to navigate between positions that were recorded after long distance jumps like `Go to line', and tool-bar buttons to navigate between last edits. The latter is different in Emacs since positions of last edits are stored only in the undo list, not in the mark ring. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
