Subject: CUA + shift-select-mode;  org-mode and CUA
Date: Mon, 24 Aug 2009 18:00:18 -0400

CUA mode and shift-select-mode don't seem to be aware of each other.

If I turn on CUA first, and then shift-select-mode, shifted selection  
fails (e.g. shift-right marks only one character as region).

Emacs -Q
(cua-mode 1)
(setq shift-select-mode t)


Why would one want to do that?
For example in order to get org-mode to work correctly with shifted  
selection and the appropriate org-mode customization variable.

The fact that org-mode doesn't understand CUA's shifted selection is a  
bit sad, too.

This is fixed in current trunk.
