This used to work, but recently stopped working:
From EMACS TUTORIAL line 375:
"You can also kill any part of the text with one uniform method. Move
to one end of that part, and type C-@ or C-<SPC> (either one). (<SPC>
is the Space bar.) Move to the other end of that part, and type C-w.
That kills all the text between the two positions.
>> Move the cursor to the Y at the start of the previous paragraph.
>> Type C-<SPC>. Emacs should display a message "Mark set"
at the bottom of the screen.
>> Move the cursor to the n in "end", on the second line of the
paragraph.
>> Type C-w. This will kill the text starting from the Y,
and ending just before the n."
I've done exactly that.
No text is killed. All that happens is a minibuffer appears containing
the message.
"The mark is not active now"
