Hi Tim, Hi Uday,
wherefrom you assume that?
AFAIU buffer, point and mark are stored the very moment
`(save-excursion' cames in.
They should be restored if the parentese closes.
Every setting of buffer, mark and point between then doesn't matter as
far as the buffer now current again is concerned.
Maybe there have been other `save-excursion' intercurse. But every one
tells it's own story.
What's the difficulty?
Andreas
