The M key works, e.g. M-w still does what >> it's supposed to if a region is active, and I can use ESC x instead. > > What does C-h k M-x say? For C-h k M-x, it doesn't say anything. For C-h k ESC-x, it says the following: ==================================================== M-x (translated from x) runs the command execute-extended-command, which is an interactive built-in function in `C source code'. It is bound to , , M-x. (execute-extended-command PREFIXARG) Read function name, then read its arguments and call it. To pass a numeric argument to the command you are invoking with, specify the numeric argument to this command. Noninteractively, the argument PREFIXARG is the prefix argument to give to the command you invoke, if it asks for an argument. ==================================================== Not sure what to make of this ...
