Re: alt v key

Below are the outputs after C-h k

C-M-v:
M-b runs the command backward-word
   which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `simple'.
(backward-word ARG)

Move backward until encountering the beginning of a word.
With argument, do this that many times.

M-c:
M-c runs the command capitalize-word
(capitalize-word ARG)
   which is an interactive built-in function.

Capitalize the following word (or ARG words), moving over.
This gives the word(s) a first character in upper case
and the rest lower case.
With negative argument, capitalize previous words but do not move.


C-v:
C-v runs the command scroll-up
(scroll-up &optional ARG)
   which is an interactive built-in function.

Scroll text of current window upward ARG lines; or near full screen if
no \
ARG.
A near full screen is `next-screen-context-lines' less than a full
screen.
Negative ARG means scroll downward.
If ARG is the atom `-', scroll downward by nearly full screen.
When calling from a program, supply as argument a number, nil, or `-'.

C-c: waits for further input

?:
? runs the command self-insert-command
(self-insert-command N)
   which is an interactive built-in function.

Insert the character you type.
Whichever character you type to run this command is inserted.

Thanks for help,
Mark
