Subject: bug#25992: perform-replace leaves mark-active when not transient-mark-mode
Date: Sun, 05 Mar 2017 18:02:23 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m2k283yxg0.wl%esq@lawlist.com> (raw)
When transient-mark-mode is turned off, perform-replace leaves mark-active set to `t`.
Step 1: Launch emacs -q
Step 2: Turn off transient-mark-mode. (transient-mark-mode -1)
Step 3: Evaluate mark-active and verify it is `nil`.
Step 4: Run a simple perform-replace such as: (replace-regexp ";" "@" nil 1 2)
Step 5: Evaluate mark-active and see that it is now set `t`.
The desired behavior is to leave `mark-active` set to `nil` if it was previously set to `nil`.
I fixed this in my own setup with a very simple test at the outset of perform-replace to see whether mark-active was set to `t` at the outset and then turn it off at the end of the function if it was not previously active.
Thanks,
Keith
