Subject: bug#45617: <query-replace> loses the edit region. Works in 23.3, broke in 26.3
Date: Mon, 25 Jan 2021 10:13:27 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <006c01d6f345$c82aa7e0$587ff7a0$@net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87ft2p1fcl.fsf@mail.linkov.net>
I tried, for the first time, 'emacs -Q', repeatedly doing
1. select region by dragging mouse-1, sometimes top-to-bottom, sometimes
bottom-to-top
2. start <query-replace>
3. double click mouse-1 on some text on a top line, always the same text
4. yank that text to the command example:
Query replace in region _xxx with:
5. with keyboard enter
Query replace in region _xxx with: _iSmbl
6. then keyboard <enter> to start.
It was doing the expected, correct, query replace, for the first, oh, maybe
six times, then got into the broken state and when I repeat the above
sequence it behaves as if there was no region selected and no replacements
are offered (Replaced 0 occurences).
It seems like something was not restored correctly. I cannot say I precisely
followed the above steps for the first times when it was working - I wanted
to vary the sequence a bit (sometimes entering from the keyboard, sometimes
selecting text from a lower line in the selection) to see if I could break
it. I cannot be more specific about exactly which sequence broke it, only
that now, when it's broken, it consistently does not work!

This means you don't see the problem when you don't load your .emacs file?
So when you start with 'emacs -Q' there is no problem?
