It needs to be placed on the outer side of the parenthesis. For example, in this sentence anywhere where the * is:
This (sentence has)* far *(too) many (parentheses)* in it! According to Emacs C-M-p is called 'backward list' and it 'Move[s] backward across one balanced group of parentheses.' So the cursor (point) has to be outside the parentheses. I presumer the same for C-M-n, but my WM has that bound to run Mozilla Firefox and is thus quite frustrating!

My understanding is that completion is done with M-<Tab> -- Unfortunately, this is also used used by some window managers and isn't seen by Emacs. The trick is to use <esc> followed by <tab>. However, I get a complaint that the tags table isn't loaded.
