Hi,

he never claimed that "M-b M-@" was bound to a function: "M-b" is indeed bound to
`backward-word'. But then the point is at the beginning of a word and "M-@",
which is bound to `mark-word' will do the trick.

Come on, you could at least have tried it once. Emacs seldom explodes on
keyboard input ;-)

There are no good lawyers. There may be lady wrestlers and Catholic
universities. There may be military intelligence. But a good lawyer is
a contradiction in terms.
