I don't quite see how you can say that. Temporary transient mark mode has a point, yes, but I would rather have it enabled permanently rather than needing a keybinding each time I need it. (I never mark a region with the mouse). The problem for me is that without transient mark mode, I often run into situations where I mark the "wrong" region, and then I have to go back and do it all over again. Then I'd have to press `C-SPC C-SPC' before marking once more. Would you care to elaborate on this? -- SB _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
