I'm getting a problem using kill-line in a buffer with much invisible text.
Instead of killing one line, it kills on and on til the end of the buffer.
Version is 21.2.1.
kill-whole-line = t
emacs -nw (I have found other bugs persisting in this less popular use
of emacs.)
I know you will ask me to reproduce the bug in the latest version of
emacs, but I don't want to get side-tracked right now, and I figure
that a preliminary bug-report is better than none at all.
Has anyone seen this one before? Worked on it?
Thanks and keep up the good work.
Andrew

It sounds like the intended behaviour. With kill-whole-line non-nil,
kill-line kills up to wherever forward-visible-line ends up. Ie,
invisible newlines are ignored.

No, sorry, but there are several visible newlines in the way. It eats
them all up.

PS. Thanks for writing. It's always a surprise to hear from a human.

Can you give a recipe showing how to reproduce the problem, starting
from emacs -q --no-site-file?

This seems to work:
emacs -nw -q --no-site-file
(setq ss (concat (make-string 10 ?X) "," ))
(put-text-property 0 10 'invisible t ss)
(insert ss ss ss "\n" ss ss ss "\n" ss ss ss "\n" ss ss ss "\n" )
(setq kill-whole-line t)
---
Then use ^K to kill the first line. They all disappear.
(let ((kill-whole-line t))
(kill-line))
This seems to have the value "kill-region" . . . if that makes any
sense.

I can reproduce this bug in Emacs 21, but it appears to be fixed in
Emacs 22 and later. (The problem was in forward-visible-line.)

Yes, I also see it in 21.4, but not in 22.1 or 23.3, so I'm closing
this as fixed in 22.1.
Thanks for the bug recipe. You are encouraged to upgrade to a more
recent Emacs! :)
