Welcome to IDLWAVE. I assure you, soon enough you'll feel right at
home.

What's happening here is that your system is trapping M-<tab> and
using it for its own nefarious purposes (like switching windows).
Emacs never sees it. You can try ESC-<Tab> instead. This is
equivalent, if a little cumbersome. A better solution is to
reconfigure your system so it doesn't trap M-<tab> any longer. Since
you didn't say if this was Windows, Linux, or something else, I can't
offer any more specific advice, but it might be easy enough to
accomplish.

Good luck,

JD
