Subject: question about org-region-active-p
Date: Mon, 15 Dec 2008 19:51:32 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <494709A4.1000703@sift.info> (raw)
The definition of org-region-active-p in my copy of org-mode is as follows:
(defun org-region-active-p ()
"Is `transient-mark-mode' on and the region active?
Works on both Emacs and XEmacs."
(if org-ignore-region
nil
(if (featurep 'xemacs)
(and zmacs-regions (region-active-p))
(if (fboundp 'use-region-p)
(use-region-p)
(and transient-mark-mode mark-active)))))
What seems odd to me is that this command will only work on an emacs 22
(like my Aquamacs) if transient-mark-mode is enabled. Is that correct,
and is that what's desired?
[I found this because I tried to publish a subtree of an org file, and I
found that org-region-active-p was NIL even after C-c @
(outline-mark-subtree).]
This may be an oddity of aquamacs -- it seems to prefer cua-mode and
turn off transient-mark-mode by default. I confess to not really
understanding that decision or its implications.
thanks,
