 4.10 Other Commands
 ===================
 
 Here are the various other commands that didn’t fit anywhere else:
 
 ‘C-c .’ (‘c-set-style’)
      Switch to the specified style in the current buffer.  Use like
      this:
 
           C-c . STYLE-NAME <RET>
 
      You can use the <TAB> in the normal way to do completion on the
      style name.  Note that all style names are case insensitive, even
      the ones you define yourself.
 
      Setting a style in this way does _not_ automatically reindent your
      file.  For commands that you can use to view the effect of your
DONTPRINTYET       changes, see Indentation Commands and *noteFilling and
DONTPRINTYET       changes, see Indentation Commands and Filling and

      Breaking.
 
      For details of the CC Mode style system, see Styles.
 ‘C-c :’ (‘c-scope-operator’)
      In C++, it is also sometimes desirable to insert the double-colon
      scope operator without performing the electric behavior of colon
      insertion.  ‘C-c :’ does just this.
 
 ‘C-c C-\’ (‘c-backslash-region’)
      This function inserts and aligns or deletes end-of-line backslashes
      in the current region.  These are typically used in multi-line
      macros.
 
      With no prefix argument, it inserts any missing backslashes and
      aligns them according to the ‘c-backslash-column’ and
      ‘c-backslash-max-column’ variables.  With a prefix argument, it
      deletes any backslashes.
 
      The function does not modify blank lines at the start of the
      region.  If the region ends at the start of a line, it always
      deletes the backslash (if any) at the end of the previous line.
 
      To customize the precise workings of this command, Custom
      Macros.
 
 The recommended line breaking function, ‘c-context-line-break’ (
 Filling and Breaking), is especially nice if you edit multiline macros
 frequently.  When used inside a macro, it automatically inserts and
 adjusts the mandatory backslash at the end of the line to keep the macro
 together, and it leaves the point at the right indentation column for
 the code.  Thus you can write code inside macros almost exactly as you
 can elsewhere, without having to bother with the trailing backslashes.
 
 ‘C-c C-e’ (‘c-macro-expand’)
      This command expands C, C++, Objective C or Pike macros in the
      region, using an appropriate external preprocessor program.
      Normally it displays its output in a temporary buffer, but if you
      give it a prefix arg (with ‘C-u C-c C-e’) it will overwrite the
      original region with the expansion.
 
      The command does not work in any of the other modes, and the key
      sequence is not bound in these other modes.
 
      ‘c-macro-expand’ isn’t actually part of CC Mode, even though it is
      bound to a CC Mode key sequence.  If you need help setting it up or
      have other problems with it, you can either read its source code or
      ask for help in the standard (X)Emacs forums.
