Hi Kaushal,Thanks for your suggestion. I am currently on Cygwin only, but I use different fonts on different systems, depending on what is available. If I explicitly define a region with e.g. SHIFT+arrow key, it is always perfectly visible.
M-x describe-face RET region RET (after points 1.2.3. of previous message): Face: region (sample) (customize this face) Documentation: Basic face for highlighting the region. Defined in `faces.el'. Family: unspecified Foundry: unspecified Width: unspecified Height: unspecified Weight: unspecified Slant: unspecified Foreground: unspecified DistantForeground: unspecified Background: blue3 Underline: unspecified Overline: unspecified Strike-through: unspecified Box: unspecified Inverse: unspecified Stipple: unspecified Font: unspecified Fontset: unspecified Inherit: unspecifiedWhen I say "invisible region", I mean that it appears just like normal text.
PS: All the developers who responded to you have been very polite. They all have been very helpful to me. I respect all of them.Yeah, I even praised gnu.emacs.help in a blog of mine, and I stuck to GNU Emacs even when XEemacs was all the rage. But that apparently does not prevent GNU Emacs from self-immolation, notably on the altar of mainstream compatibility.
Cheers, Alexandre
