Hi,
I found a bug with undo and selection. While putting together a simple
recreate, I also found a buglet involving A-left/A-right on plain lists.
First I'll describe the list bug. If you have a plain list before the first
heading you can't use A-left or A-right to promote or demote list items. So
given the file:
==== test 1 =========
- Stooge
- moe
- larry
- curly
==================
If you got to the line with moe on it and use A-left to promote it I would
expect to see
===== test 1 prime =======
- Stooge
- moe
- larry
- curly
======================
It doesn't work because it's before the first heading. Not a big deal, but
I though I'd mention it.
The second is more of an issue for someone like me who tends to live by undo
and is also sloppy about have a selection. Given the file
==== test 2 =========
* brilliant
- Stooge
- moe
- larry
- curly
==================
Now go to the line with moe and press A-left twice to get the file: (note:
moe indented twice. larry and curly indented once)
==== test 2 prime ====
* brilliant
- Stooge
- moe
- larry
- curly
=================
Now select the region containing lines with moe and larry using what ever
method you like. (The mouse is easy.) Do two undos. I would expect it to
undo both promotes, restoring the file back to its contents in test 2.
Instead I get: (curly never got demoted)
==== test 2 double prime ====
* brilliant
- Stooge
- moe
- larry
- curly
========================
I'm assuming that regional undos are not a feature I'm unfamiliar with.
This is with emacs 21.2.1 on cygwin running org 4.69a. I've seen similar on
21.1.1 on AIX and an older version org.

This is fixed now, thanks.

I think this result is correct, because Emacs only does undo in the
region. curley is notpart of the region, so its promotion (as subitem
of moe) should not be undone. Am I missing something?

I guess it could be a feature of emacs. I've never noticed outside of
org-mode and found it confusing. I should be able to get rid of the
region and try undos from there and cycle back to the original state
then right? I'll play with it some more.
Thanks,
Edd
