Re: REDO ?

[Ken Manheimer]

i would like to chime in with a strong request integration of a rel
"redo", when the time is right.

i've used kyle jones' redo.el for a few years, and wouldn't go back to
the painful layering of undo-on-undo in order to redo.  undoing feels
like a delicate, hazardous operation without redo, because of the
obstacle of geometrically mounting undo length in the case of
overshoot.  i used to get lost in that labrynth much too commonly, and
expect that people unfamiliar with how well it is mitigated by redo
don't realize what they're missing - but may recognize the experience
of tension while undoing, needing to not overshoot...

(i've settled for using the usupported redo.el for years, but there
are some bugs that i'm sure would have been resolved if it were a
commonly used part of the main distribution.)
