Kill-region would be much safer if the region was highlighted while the mark was set. The Brown University editor bb did this and it was one thing that was much better than emacs. There were some other things too, but I don't remember... so long ago... Set-mark would have to turn the mark off if it was on, rather than setting a new mark. -david
