I always get frustrated when I navigate C-syntax-styled code in Emacs after being used to the elegant way of navigating expression-list- trees in lisp-mode. I really believe the coding experience of Emacs would be enhanced greatly enhanced in these cc-like modes if we had forward/backward- token(). I think I would bind to M-f/b. The function semantic-flex or semantic-lex-c-... can be used do the job but how do I know at what character to start the first time I do forward/backward-token? Thanks in advance, Nordl=F6w
