Why do you say the entire buff= er > isn't selected -- Good call. It is being selected, but it is not being highlighted. It is highlighted in my SuSE built Emacs 21.1.1. I have found that it is _not_ highlighted in my 21.2 build. > do you have transient-mark-mode turned on and the buffer > isn't getting highlighted? Where does point end up after you type the > command? Transient-mark-mode is, by default, non-nil in the 21.1 build. In 21.2 & = 21.5 they are nil by default. Hmmmm. Something changed? Thanks for the help. That does seem to address the problem. > -Miles
