[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hi there,
Thanks for trying to reproduce and replying so fast!
Yeah, I ran with `-q` and the same thing is happening. The buffer isn't
read-only, though. Deleting without the region active works. Killing the
region with C-w works. It's only deleting that doesn't work.
:-(
If there's any way that I could gather more information on this, let me
know.
Thanks!
