Hello again!
It seems I might have come across an actual bug this time :-)
From the man page:
kill-region: ^W
Deletes the input between the cursor and the mark.
But for me, it doesn't do that. For example, let | represent the cursor:
$ one |two three four # set mark with ^[<space>
$ one two three| four # move forward
$ one two four # invoke kill-region with ^W
As you can see, only "three" is killed, whereas it should have killed
"two three" in its entirety.
Is this a bug? Other commands, like evaluate-region, work fine.
Best regards,
John
