Now, C-c C-z is already pretty smart: it doesn't delete the line before the ``-- '', thus I don't need to retype ``kai''. But I wish I could make it so that more lines aren't deleted, such as an additional ``tia,'' to be put before the ``kai''. Similar things apply to C-c C-v and maybe some other commands. How about an option message-before-signature-preserve-lines which I could set to 1 to get the current behavior, to 2 to get the desired behavior? tia, kai -- OOP: object oriented programming; OOPS: object oriented mistakes
