Ben,
How do I specify the number of columns when using "C-x $"? It
doesn't prompt, and doesn't seem to take the current column of
the cursor position into account. Just echoes:
selective-display set to nil.
Same for using the command at the M-x prompt. I type "M-x"
and see the M-x prompt, then then type "set-selective-display"
using tab to autocomplete it. But I can't then type a column
number after a space or in parens or anything. What am I missing?
Thanks,
--Fred
