Sorry guys I'm a newbie...In the books it tells me using "ESC C-\\" after setting region marks. I tried but when I type Alt C the highlighted region disappear.

So can any guys help me?

Answer 1

In a text-mode buffer if you mark the text in your first example and press Ctrl + Alt + \\ you will get the text in your second example. This key combination runs the command indent-region .

I think you're tripping up on the syntax in the docs. Cx means Ctrl + x .
