Subject: what is the point of point-min?
Date: Wed, 27 Aug 2003 18:40:30 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E19s9tu-000050-00@linux183.ma.utexas.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <E19s71c-0005cn-KT@monty-python.gnu.org> (help-gnu-emacs-request@gnu.org)
Here is a handy rebinding of <delete> that I found on the web.
(global-set-key [delete]
(lambda () (interactive)
(if mark-active
(kill-region (point) (mark))
(delete-char 1))))
and here is an alternative suggestion with one small change that I do
not fully understand. Why would this be better?
(global-set-key [delete]
(lambda () (interactive)
(if mark-active
(kill-region (point) (mark))
(delete-char (point-min)))))
