Ok, I found *my* problem after all! I took the long route to realize that it was actually mine, convinced as I was that what I did in the various Emacses was exactly the same: I extracted a fresh copy of Emacs master and compiled it, then added the following simple test in test/lisp/align-tests.el (ert-deftest align-regexp () (should (equal (with-temp-buffer (text-mode) (insert "a, b, c\none, two, three\n") (align-regexp (point-min) (point-max) ",\\(\\s-*\\)" 1 1 t) (buffer-substring-no-properties (point-min) (point-max))) "a,\tb,\tc\none,\ttwo,\tthree\n"))) that, with my surprise, a "make lisp/align-tests" passed! 8-} The good news is that, back to my interactive Emacs session, I did my original task again and this time it worked flawlessly, both with Emacs 29 *and* with Emacs 30. The bad news is that I could not replicate what I did wrong: I can only assume I blindly entered the wrong regexp. TIL! Thank you and sorry for the noise, bye, lele. -- nickname: Lele Gaifax | Dire che Emacs è "conveniente" è come real: Emanuele Gaifas | etichettare l'ossigeno come "utile" lele@etour.tn.it | -- Rens Troost
