Subject: bug#6907: 23.2; beginning-of-buffer inconsistent mark behavior
Date: Wed, 25 Aug 2010 11:09:21 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <84eidn57hq.fsf@cs.bham.ac.uk> (raw)
The doc-string for `beginning-of-buffer' says that it leaves the mark at
the previous position. But it is not doing so when the
transient-mark-mode is active.
`end-of-buffer' is also the same. I don't know what other commands have
this problem.
Cheers,
Uday
