Subject: bug#13312: 24.3.50; delete selection mode not killing on overwrite
Date: Sat, 19 Oct 2013 07:44:49 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <e987b593-84f0-46f9-b3c4-da3ee9fa5ba8@default> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <m2a9sv2iup.fsf@gmail.com>

I don't think this should be on the wishlist.  It's a clear bug.

(put 'ANY-COMMAND 'delete-selection 'kill) should kill the
text in the active region.  It does not do so in the case
where ANY-COMMAND is `self-insert-command'.  A bug.

The fact that "usually the delete text is still available from the
"PRIMARY" selection" is irrelevant.  (Not to mention that there is
no "PRIMARY" selection on some platforms.)

Putting `kill' as the property value should kill the text, pure and
simple.
