Subject: Yanking text without properties?
Date: Mon, 12 Jul 2004 18:22:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m2oemljius.fsf@c-b75372d5.036-4-67626721.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se> (raw)


This is more of a Emacs question then a Gnus but since I usually
encounter it while using Gnus I still consider it to be on topic. :-)

When I copy or kill some text in one buffer and that text contains
some properties - in 99.999% of the cases it is the face of the text -
and then yanks it in some other buffer (usually a message buffer) the
text in the buffer keeps its properties (the face). Usually this is a
good thing, but personally I hate it - suddenly my buffer might look
like a Christmas tree with dozen of colours.

My question is; is there a yank-without-face, yank-without-properties
or similar piece of code? I have not been able to found any.

TIA, it's really annoying!
