Sorry - yes I DID mean shift+down once the selection is highlighted not
down by itself.
I checked my keybinding settings as you asked and they are the same as
you mentioned.
I've been trying out previous versions (to find where the behaviour
changed).
I've since re-installed 5.3.3 completely and it's behaving correctly
now, so I assume it's something else that caused the problem.
Perhaps I should have done that before bothering the list here. Sorry.
Still it seems to be back to usual now.

The keystrokes suggests (control-shift-home and then down) don't move
the selection for me; after the down, I go back to the unselected state.
Meanwhile, control-space, control-n works in the way you would seem to
want it to work. Is there some more complex sequence that causes trouble?

DrRacket does indeed implement those keystrokes itself, but
I'm seeing what
you describe as the 5.3.1 behavior in 5.3.3 and in the git
head under mac
os x and under a relatively recent git version under linux.
When you choose the Edit | Keybindings | Show Active
Keybindings menu item
and search for home, do you see "select-to-beginning-of-file"
as the
c:s:home key and when you search for "s:down" do you see
"select-down" as
the corresponding keystroke?
No, I think he meant down. I noticed something similar some time
after upgrading to 5.3.2. I use c:space to "set mark" and c:n to
move forward a character in Emacs with the intention of later
doing a selection between mark and point. In 5.3.1, I was able to
do this in DrRacket, that is, the Emacs cursor commands extended
the selection. Now it doesn't happen any more. I did look in the
keybindings and notice that shift seemed to be needed now. Still
haven't figured out if I want to change the keybindings or change
my behaviour. --PR
