If it does, mark and point are set around the entire contents of the buffer so that it is easy to kill the contents of the buffer with `C-w'. Is this really true with the default settings? I have never seen it, not using Emacs CVS and not using RCS. Or is this only true when vc-delete-logbuf-window is nil? (The default is t.) If the latter, the mark and point stuff could be better mentioned in the docstring of that option and the above paragraph deleted from the Emacs manual. Sincerely, Luc.
