My emacs (GNU Emacs 23.0.91.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.9)
of 2009-03-06 on alphaville.usa.hp.com) doesn't seem to have prefix-region -
where does it come from?
OTOH, it can be simulated with something like this
(let ((fill-prefix ": "))
(indent-region (mark) (point)))
but making it more general (arbitrary prefix) and bullet-proof (not sure
whether (indent-region start end) requires that start be less than end)
would need a bit more code than this.
Thanks,
Nick
