Is this a feature from XEmacs? Er, no. `region-active-p' is defined in simple.el (unless someone's undefined it in the last week or so). transient-mark-mode "only mode" is used by `mouse-set-region-1'. Johan mentioned that "only mode" was documented in the Emacs (or Elisp?) manual, though I haven't looked it up. -Miles -- Generous, adj. Originally this word meant noble by birth and was rightly applied to a great multitude of persons. It now means noble by nature and is taking a bit of a rest.
