Please elaborate. According to the help text and the online doc === sort-lines is an interactive compiled Lisp function. (sort-lines REVERSE BEG END) === I have EDT emulation on (biggest draw ever!) [GOLD]-7 brings up the M-x prompt without my having to remember cryptic keystrokes. If I type sort-lines [RETURN] it sorts the entire buffer as expect. No prompt for an optional argument, the sort just happens. If I type sort-lines[spacebar] I get the [Sole Completion] message and the cursor remains firmly mushed against the "s". I tried [TAB], I tried everything. There is no way to enter sort-lines REVERSE [RETURN] _that_ is my bug report. On Linux I have the version from the Emacs PPA. On Windows 10 it came straight from the GNU site. Both behave exactly the same way. All of the sort-something commands work from [GOLD]-7. You just cannot enter any parameters. I started using Emacs specifically for EDT emulation. -- Roland Hughes, President Logikal Solutions (630)-205-1593 http://www.theminimumyouneedtoknow.com http://www.infiniteexposure.net http://www.johnsmith-book.com http://www.logikalblog.com http://www.interestingauthors.com/blog
