Hi!

I love emacs!  Ok, now that that is out of the way... I use Emacs
on a Sun SparcStation ELC connected to HP TAC-3's.  I have access
to 2 versions of emacs, 19.22 and some earlier version.  I also 
worked with another version on another project, and I used the 
UniPress version (yuck).  Anyway, I wanted to comment on what seems
to be an enhancement in version 19.22.

Esc-z in prior versions kills up to the specified character (except
in UniPress emacs, where it does something entirely unrelated).  I have
gotten used to using this function (I program in Ada) to delete any white
space, either at the beginning of a line or elsewhere.  Anyway,
the "enhancement" in 19.22 is that Esc-z kills up to and INCLUDING the
specified character.  I don't see that as an enhancement at all, and I
wanted to voice my opinion on the subject.  I have been trying out 19.22
because it has so many more capabilities, but I think I'm going back to
the older one, so that I don't have to retype the character that I want
to kill up to, not including.  I understand that you may already be up
to a much higher version, but PLEASE consider keeping it the way it was, 
or offering a variable that can be set to control whether Esc-z kills
up to or up to and including the specified character.  Thank you!


Sincerely,

Frances L. Witucki
