Open a new buffer and type M-x picture-mode. Press C-SPC to mark the current position. Now, attempt to extend the marked region to the rectangle size you desire with the following command: C-f C-f C-f C-n C-n C-n This should've marked a region. Now C-c C-r should create a rectangle. This _doesn't_ happen. Sincerely, __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! - Official partner of 2002 FIFA World Cup http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com
