24 | ;;; Commentary: | |
25 | ||
26 | ;; Having loaded this code you can set the region by holding down the | |
27 | ;; shift key and move the cursor to the other end of the region. The | |
a7acbbe4 | 28 | ;; functionality provided by this code is similar to that provided by |
d6eac7d4 RS |
29 | ;; the editors of Borland International's compilers for ms-dos. |
30 | ||
31 | ;; Currently, s-region-move may be bound only to events that are vectors | |
32 | ;; of length one and whose last element is a symbol. Also, the functions | |
33 | ;; that are given this kind of overlay should be (interactive "p") | |
34 | ;; functions. | |
35 | ||
9af40217 | 36 | ;; If the following keys are not already bound then... |
d6eac7d4 RS |
37 | ;; C-insert is bound to copy-region-as-kill |
38 | ;; S-delete is bound to kill-region | |
39 | ;; S-insert is bound to yank | |
