I'm trying to print a region in a buffer.
This does not work so I will explain what I did:
1: find-file "file"
2: I edited the buffer "file".
   Now the buffer was updated, but the buffer "file" wasn't saved to the 
   file "file".
3: I marked a region in buffer "file".
4: print-region (in buffer "file")
5: The text printed out was the whole file "file" (the original!!!!!), not
   the selected region in the buffer.

Why did it happen this way?
Is this a bug or didn't I use the function correctly?


Any help appreciated,

Hakan Jansson,
