Try this in CVS Emacs: $ emacs-22-xyz -q
Type some text and mark it by temporarily activating transient-mark-mode (C-SPC C-SPC). Press C-d (delete-char). This does nothing to the text, which was expected (at least for a long-time Emacs-user... :) Now type some more text and this time mark the text using the mouse. Now press C-d again. Voila! Text deleted! What is this magic? Some "stuff" in the text properties, or what? /Mathias _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
