24.4.50; REGRESSION: `delete-selection-mode' broken by `electric-indent-mode' change |

emacs -Q
M-x delete-selection-mode ; turn it on
M-: (electric-indent-mode -1) ; turn it off
I was hoping that this would just restore the behavior present in Emacs
forever, prior to Emacs 24.4: C-j would insert a newline and indent, and
RET would insert a newline.
The regression is that C-j does not delete the active region. For
example, in `emacs-lisp-mode':
Select the text from the middle of a line through eol (the newline
char). Ensure that point is at the start of the selection, not the end.
Hit `C-j'. The rest of the line is indented on the next line, instead
of being killed. If point was instead at eol then the rest of the line
is intact and a newline is inserted and point indented. In sum, the
selected text is not killed.
A fix is to add this sexp to delsel.el:
(put 'electric-newline-and-maybe-indent 'delete-selection t)
I see that you have already added this sexp instead:
(put 'reindent-then-newline-and-indent 'delete-selection t)
I can't speak to whether that second sexp is correct or should be
removed. I don't use command `reindent-then-newline-and-indent'.
