Hmmm, I'm forwarding this to bug-gnu-emacs@prep.ai.mit.edu. Though the vip mode documentation says that C-x i and C-x C-i are now insert-file, one would think that once one switched back to emacs mode, C-x C-i would hopefully be still indent-rigidly. Infact, in the vip manual it says: !Emacs Mode !---------- ! !You will be in this mode just after you loaded VIP. You can do all !normal Emacs editing in this mode. Note that the key `C-z' is !globally bound to `vip-change-mode-to-vi'. So, if you type `C-z' in !this mode then you will be in vi mode. and C-x C-i was a normal command. Maybe a (global-set-key "\C-x\C-i" 'indent-rigidly) in your .emacs file after the vip stuff is loaded will fix this bug. [Seen in 18.55,18.57] Dan_Jacobson@ATT.COM Naperville IL USA +1 708 979 6364
