Subject: bug#10023: 24.0.91; `mark-whole-buffer' doesn't always "mark the whole buffer"
Date: Sat, 12 Nov 2011 12:51:55 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAH8Pv0gDxP+G0DSvns8w8gNmhkt_58FSWvbLOU9vTajzReykjg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi,
The `mark-whole-buffer' command, when invoked from a narrowed buffer,
doesn't mark the whole buffer (like its name, docstring and the manual
say) but only the narrowed portion.
Therefore, I think that:
* The docstring and the manual should explain this use-case.
* The command name could be renamed to just `mark-buffer', since the
"whole" part is specially unfortunate.
In GNU Emacs 24.0.91.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601)
of 2011-11-11 on DANI-PC
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 6.1.7601
configured using `configure --with-gcc (4.5)'
