It is artificial, but the times where I really _want_ an active instead of an available region are rather few, and the side effects of regions becoming either unavailable or completely dictatorial were annoying in the extreme. Now my regions are mostly in that half-baked state that is most convenient for most purposes, at least for me. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
