RE: Menu item for delete-selection-mode (was: DEL key doesn't kill mouse-dragged region)

2005-12-09 Thread Drew Adams
transient-mark-mode is currently disabled by default, and has a menu item to easily enable it. delete-selection-mode is disabled too, but has no menu item to enable it. What about adding it to the Option menu? delete-selection-mode is no less useful than transient-mark-mode,

Help on font-lock-add-keywords: APPEND is a poor name.

2005-12-09 Thread Drew Adams
Both Info and the doc string for font-lock-add-keywords name the optional argument APPEND. However, its possible values show that this is a poor name. A better name might be HOW or WHERE. The values are: - nil: add to the front - `set': replace the entire current value - other non-nil: append
