#### 4.11.5 DeletePrevWord

Syntax: `DeletePrevWord [`n`]`
Abbreviation: `DPW`

deletes text from the current position to the first character of the previous word n times. If the optional n argument is not specified, it is assumed to be one (in which case, if the cursor is in the middle of a word the effect is just to delete to the start of that word).
