> Do you know of any drawbacks for someone whose editing habits are > not dependent on the region confinement of undo? Here I once had my own 'undo' function since I disliked the one in simple.el. Eventually I gave up because it was too tedious to keep up with the changes of the original. Nowadays I'm just using (defun my-undo (&optional arg) (interactive) (if mark-active ;; No `undo-in-region'. (let (mark-active) (undo arg) (setq mark-active t) ;; The following might be harmful, let's see. (setq deactivate-mark nil)) (undo arg))) But I also faintly remember a discussion with the author of 'mouse-drag-and-drop-region' on whether it is a good idea to activate the mark after dropping - IIRC he did have some argument in favor of it. Maybe it would be easier to add an option for not activating the region when dropping than adding one for 'undo'. martin
