With the cursor adjacent to the right of any bar, | if you move forwards a line (^N), the cursor slips to column 0. | 2. Moving backwards (^P) with the cursor in the same place, however, | doesn't have this problem - it sticks near the boundary. #1 is clearly a bug. C-n should be symmetrical with C-p. | 3. Moving forwards or backwards with the cursor to the right of the | boundary *not* adjacent does regular sticky-column behavior. That is correct. | 4. Forwards with the cursor on or to the bar's left leaves it in column 0. That is a bug. It should be sticky except staying to the left of the bar. | 5. Backwards in the same situation moves it to the right of the bar. That is correct behavior. 6. ^A from anywhere beyond the immediate right of the boundary moves to the immediate right, and subsequently advances to the far left. That is correct behavior. So it looks like C-p works but C-n doesn't. Yidong, would you like to fix this, then ack?
