I opened the file lib/javascript-static.js and read through it, but noticed that there is a namespace (M) used all over the file and used with almost each JS function call in moodle2, my question is where this object is initialized ? there is note on top of the file that says:

Global M object is initilised in inline javascript

but couldn't find any example of this initialization ...

can anybody help me where to find such initialization ?

thanks in advance.

There is a small amount of JavaScript written into the HTML header that includes creating M. It is done by the page_requirements_manager::get_head_code method in lib/outputrequirementslib.php.
