If you habe an unmodified buffer and you read a file with
e or E command, which does not exist, the modified flag get
set by the delete_lines function, which sets the mofified_
flat to true. This prevents a new trail e/E command with
an error message "modified".
The solution is to set the modified flag immediately after
the delete_lines function.
