Hello everyone,

1) when starting emacs -Q and type these keystrokes:

M-x cua-mode RET M-< C-RET M-> 1 C-RET

Emacs insertes char "1" in every *second* column of
the buffer, but the desired result (and the expected
behaviour) was that "1" should have been inserted
in every *first* column.

2) the problem does not happen if I extend down the
rectangle with multiple "C-n" instead of "M->".
In other words these keystrokes:

M-x cua-mode RET M-< C-RET C-n C-n C-n C-n 1 C-RET

insert "1" in every first column of the buffer (which
is the desired result). 



May I please ask for some confirmation: is the case 1)
really a bug, or did I misunderstand some aspect of
cua-mode. Thanks in advance, kindest regards.

Andrea






This bug report will be sent to the Bug-GNU-Emacs mailing list
and the GNU bug tracker at debbugs.gnu.org.  Please check that
the From: line contains a valid email address.  After a delay of up
to one day, you should receive an acknowledgment at that address.

Please write in English if possible, as the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators for other languages.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':



If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
