That is not the same: the above will set beg and end to markers, whereas match-beginning/match-end happen to be integers. However, the above will also create markers that are unused, so it would be saner to call (match-data) only once _if_ indeed markers are what is required. Unused markers slow done editing operations afterwards. So even if markers _are_ what is wanted for some reason, they should be explicitly unseated with set-marker once they are no longer needed. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
