Agreed. (note that this how it works now from some time, not how I wanted it to work) > I have to say that I am not convinced by all these discussions about > distinguishing two cursor positions that are the same as far as the > data structure is concerned. well, how about a paragraph without spaces zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz does the last position in the first row exist? It would be very bad to press "end" and go to the next row for instance. 1.3.x distiguished between the two positions AFAIC. Personally I'm pretty ok with current behaviour, i.e. 'end' puts the cursor before the last z in the first row, altough is certainly a bit unexpected. I was only saying that if "distinguishing" is to be implemented (to maintain 1.3.x) behaviour, then we can solve the full row inset easily. Alfredo
