Now I feel it is an important feature that does its work none of the rest can replace easily. What I mean by `partially citation' is that when replying instead of yanking the whole article, only yanking the text in the active region. And it will make "S W" and "S V" have consistent behavior as "F" and "R". Comments? -- .: Leo :.
