IOW, the Shift key is not working correctly for you (assuming that `>' is s= hifted `.' and `<' is shifted `,'). Does the shift key not work correctly in some other cases? What does Emacs tell you when you do `C-h k' and then try to use `M->' or `= M-<'? You probably need to provide more info about your environment, for people t= o help. Be aware that you can use `ESC >' and `ESC <' instead of `M->' and `M-<'. = But of course, you need at least to be able to have the `>' and `<' keys wo= rking.
