Ummm... I would be inclined just to report it as a bug to the zsh people and ask them to fix it before it comes out of beta. :) -Bill P.

zap-to-char and keyboard-quit [was - including or up-to?] 27 years

Greg Klanderman

Speaking of zap-to-char, is the behavior of M-z C-g right? Shouldn't C-g quit, not try to zap to ^G? Fortunately, I rarely have control-G's in my text.

Re: [Doc-bug] zap-to-char - including or up-to? 27 years

David C Worenklein

zap-to-char was up-to-but-not-including in Emacs 18. It was fun watching all my macros and functions break when RMS changed the behavior.

A "regular" package means no single lisp file can be removed safely. A "single-file" packages means each lisp file is independent and any one (or more) of them may be removed at will. That is not and will not be the case with os-utils and edit-utils. > What happened to overlay? I've been playing with flyspell-mode which > requires it. It's in fsf-compat.
