Subject: backward-delete-word function (not backward-kill-word)
Date: 24 Feb 2004 21:19:44 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <f461b4c0.0402242119.1a44079@posting.google.com> (raw)

Is there a backward-delete-word funtion in emacs?  It is very annoying
to have the  words deleted during a find-file to show up on the kill
ring (even worse, replace the clipboard, so that you have to go back
to the other application and copy it again).

I tried defining it as a keyboard macro using delete-region, but of
course it doesn't work in the mini-buffer.

TIA.
