You can use this (source last) as a template
for experimentation. Do `backward-word' and
`bwe' with point at the end of "g.args" and see
what happens.
This is done in the code with
?. "w"
which means, I think, that a point (full stop,
".") is considered a part of a word, so
`backward-word' shouldn't stop at it
but continue.
Perhaps there is a package that does what the
OP wants tho.
(defun backward-word-experiment ()
(interactive)
(let ((temp-st (make-syntax-table)))
(modify-syntax-entry ?. "w" temp-st)
(with-syntax-table temp-st
(backward-word 1) )))
(defalias 'bwe 'backward-word-experiment)
;; never fear, g.args is here
