Want to delete distinct regions but make capable undo by single command.

Want to delete distinct regions but make capable undo by single command.

Want to delete distinct regions but make capable undo by single command
(programmatically).

Like this happen after automatic replacement ('!'). You undo by 'M-_' all
replacement at once instead sequentially each individually.

Best regards!

Hi Oleksander,
I believe the combination C-x C-v replace the file with it's image on the disk. Basically removing any "unsaved" changes to the file.

Wrote such code:

(defun my-org-kill-by-tag (tag)
  "Put all entries that matches TAG from current org-file to `kill-ring'."
  (interactive (list (completing-read "Enter tag: " (org-get-buffer-tags))))
  (kill-new "")
  (org-scan-tags
   (lambda ()
     (let ( (last-command 'kill-region) )
       (org-cut-subtree)))
   '(member tag tags-list)
   nil) )

See origin:

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/71263
            Kill all items with specific tag to kill-ring.

which exploit 'org-cut-subtree' implementation with:

  (let ( (last-command 'kill-region) ) ...kill-commands...)

To make this possible your code MUST use only high-level kill ring
functions. Which take care on "last-command == kill-region".

If some function in code use 'kill-new' or 'kill-append' - 'last-command'
trick fail...
