Re: problem: M-a M-e gives symbol's function definition is voide

Thanks a million.

The C-M-a and C-M-a works good.

Wonder why I got wrong key combinations in help.

By the way is there some kind of keyboard shortcut which can help me go 
to the place where a variable was first defined?

For example if I have a variable called varName and I use it at several 
locations.  Now if I see it somewhere and can't remember where it was 
defined, I could just put my point on it and press the key combination 
and go to the line where it is first used/ defined.

I looked up the help but could not get it in C-h m.

Happy hacking.
