Re: shifted arrow keys and the region (documentation?)

I have no idea what you are talking about. ;-) I find the current behavior extremely confusing, especially since if you establish a region with a shift-motion key the next unshifted motion key deactivates the region, while if you establish a region any other way, the next motion key (shifted or unshifted) extends the region. There is no rhyme or reason to this behavior. It's a purely personal implementation being imposed on the world, requiring that the poor unfortunate user has to experiment to find out which keys are affected, and precisely how. And what happens if you fool with zmacs-regions? Undocumented! On the other hand, unsynchronizing the documentation from the standard gestures is unforgivable. Unless somebody comes forward and commits to fixing and maintaining that documentation until they find another volunteer, I'm ripping it out (if it's reasonably eay).
