Date: Thu, 16 Jan 1997 17:41:06 +0100 From: Peter Stephenson Resent-Message-ID: <"y6ID21.0.Hd.Idbto"@euclid> Resent-From: zsh-workers@math.gatech.edu X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/2801 X-Loop: zsh-workers@math.gatech.edu Precedence: list Resent-Sender: zsh-workers-request@math.gatech.edu I suppose this is just my ignorance, but I was amazed to discover just now (playing with the history lines thing) that the `mark' in zle is not a mark at all, just a character offset which is confused by insertion and deletion. Shouldn't it be possible to do something about this by adding code to spaceinline(), backkill/del(), forekill/del() -- or are there hidden problems? -- Peter Stephenson Tel: +49 33762 77366 WWW: http://www.ifh.de/~pws/ Fax: +49 33762 77413 Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron --- Institut fuer Hochenergiephysik Zeuthen DESY-IfH, 15735 Zeuthen, Germany.
