Allthough today something very strange has happened. After more than 1 week that it has been running (continuosly: I use to leave it always open, even during the night, opening and closing buffers, creating new frames, even with aid of emacsclient), suddenly (few minutes ago) the C-x keystroke has changed behavior: whenever there is an active region, it kills the selected text (just like C-w), while if there isn't any region, it acts as a prefix for the usual keystrokes (I can visit a file with C-x, C-f, or save it with C-x, C-s, or change buffer with C-x, b, for example). But with an active region it kills it instantly. I am going to restart the program, but before doing it, I would be very curious to understand what is happening, so if anyone has a suggestion about some tests or checks I can do, I would appreciate. Thanks, -- Mick
