From the manual to the next version of Emacs (22):

  The character `M-<TAB>' runs a command to complete the partial
symbol before point against the set of meaningful symbol names.  This
command inserts at point any additional characters that it can
determine from the partial name.  (If your window manager defines
`M-<TAB>' to switch windows, you can type `<ESC> <TAB>' or `C-M-i'.)
