Subject: Survival strategies for markers?
Date: Tue, 03 Jun 2014 11:55:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ha42mi5m.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
Hi List,
when markers are exposed to extreme conditions
- copy buffer substring (with marker m) from buffer A to temporary
- buffer B
- modify buffer content in B
- change major mode in B
how do they survive?
Or, more prosaic, can I do these things and somehow copy (bufferlocal?)
m from A to B, or do I have to take an indirect approach remembering m's
position in A in a global var and set a new marker at that position in
B (or so)?

cheers,
Thorsten
