'(pc-selection-mode t nil (pc-select)) ;;... ) causes `C-x C-x' to behave differently than it does when pc-selection-mode is nil. Here are my observations: With pc-selection-mode: I select a region and then `C-x C-x'. The highlighting disappears, and the cursor is moved to the location of point. The region is still selected, as is evidenced by the fact I can 'C-w' to kill it. With `$ emacs -q&' then M-x transient-mark-mode ': The behavior is basically the same except that the highlighting does not disappear when point and mark are swapped using `C-x C-x'. Is this intended behavior? GNU Emacs 21.3.50.1 (latest CVS as of yesterday) SuSE Linux 9.1 (i586) (latest patches) -- Regards, Steven
