    1. $ emacs -q

    2. Create two lines of text:

    line1
    line2

    3. Mark the first one using the mouse and press C-d (delete-char). The
       marked region will be deleted.

That does not happen when I try it.  C-d just deletes the character
after point.

    In GNU Emacs 22.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
     of 2005-06-26 on NONIQPC
    X server distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600
    configured using `configure --with-gcc (3.3) --cflags -I../../jpeg-6b-3/include -I../../libpng-1.2.8/include -I../../tiff-3.6.1-2/include -I../../xpm-nox-4.2.0/include -I../../zlib-1.2.2/include'

Did someone make Emacs on Windows behave differently in this situation?
