It is an special mark, not to be confused with the ordinary mark which just indicates which buffers will be affected by a subsequent operation. `D' is one such operation that deletes marked buffers. > Doesn't look quite as good as electric > and acts a bit weird. > > You select with return instead of space. > I don't know what that line that says Default is but when I selected it, > it appeared to select itself but with no content. > It contains a blank line and total at the end and it lets you cursor > into them. [Default...] is a group heading. You can configure ibuffer for dividing buffers into groups and operate on them at once. > It appears to show itself in the buffer list. No it doesn't. > Not switching any time soon. Good to know. For those of you interested on ibuffer, see the compulsory EmacsWiki entry: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/IbufferMode
