A character string like:

string1_string2_string3

is not considered as a word in emacs.

Deleting one “word” from the start point only deletes “string1”. How can I delete to the end of “string3” from “string1” or vice versa? The same problem occurs when moving forward or backward.

    Try C-M-k, which is kill-sexp. Similarly, you can move around with C-M-f and C-M-b (bound to forward-sexp and backward-sexp respectively).

    Or make the change proposed for a solution to this related question.
