I had trouble with M-Tab under Windows 2000 (conflict with Windows'
change-application hotkey), so I added this to my .emacs file to make
C-M-Tab do the completion:
(add-hook 'idlwave-mode-hook
'(lambda ()
(define-key idlwave-mode-map
[(control meta tab)] 'idlwave-complete)
))
Hope this helps you out!
Cheers,
