Re: 21.4.16 activated region bug?

Hi Rodney,
I see the same in
XEmacs 21.5 (beta18) "chestnut" (+CVS-20050108) [Lucid] (i586-pc-win32, Mule)
of Sun Jan 09 2005 on D5DC120J
when I extend using cursor keys (unshifted) after
selecting a region with the mouse or after a set-mark command.
However, if I first extend a region with shifted cursor keys, then the
first unshifted cursor key thereafter unselected the region.
This agrees with documentation of
shifted-motion-keys-select-region,
HOWEVER there seems to be a typo in
" However, if `unshifted-motion-keys-deselect-region' is t, the region
will remain active, augmented by the characters moved over by this
motion key.
"
I think the above should state nil instead of t, to agree with actual
behavior in my emacs-version.
See also
unshifted-motion-keys-deselect-region
which seems to be correct.
Do others agree this is a typo I found?
Please advise,
Adrian
Thanks, Rodney
