Subject: Setting mark in minibuffer prompt
To: help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org
I am trying to write an interactive function that prompts
for a filename, placing point at the end of the prompt and mark
somewhere earlier in the path.
[desired behavior]
Well, it's most polite to wait until the message is complete
before acknowledging receipt. You can complete it by asking a
specific question or posting code that demonstrates your efforts
to date (along with a specific question). Until then, you are
tempting the crass to respond with their own (possibly incomplete)
messages, which might be fun, too, i suppose.
Does that make sense?
