That is not a default binding for either GNU Emacs or XEmacs, so
I'm not positive which function you have bound to it. For that
purpose I have a menu item which does font-lock-fontify-buffer.
I rarely use it, which is why it's a menu item rather than
bound to a key sequence. (My menus are not the default menus.)
Incidentally, with XEmacs the default binding for M-g is the
goto-line function.

If you are not using goto-line you are missing a very quick way
to move around in files.
