What is the purpose of `region-active-p' in Emacs? Is it only for compatibility with XEmacs? If so, then it seems it is not necessary since compatibility code checks for (featurep 'xemacs) and as I see now also for a new function (fboundp 'use-region-p). > The function to check whether a command should operate on the region > instead of whatever it normally does is now called `use-region-p'. Perhaps a better function name could start with the `region-...' prefix for consistency with other related functions. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
