What is confusing about `redisplay' though, is that, when the point is within invisible text, sometimes the cursor is displayed, sometimes not. There does not appear to be any consistency, that I can see. Maybe I'll have a look at the C sources. As regards preventing the point ending up in in an invisible extent, I guess I'll have another look at `line-move' in simple.el. -- Mike <mike(a)lotusland.demon.co.uk&gt;
