Hello everyone, being jealous of Guillaume Cartier's Jazz system, I've implemented the "alt-click" functionality of Jazz into Emacs. It probably already existed somewhere with a better name, but I couldn't find it, out of means to describe it to a search engine. I've tentatively called it 'meta-paste' and I bind it to "Alt-Shift-Click" on my system. Hope someone finds this useful, (the other) Guillaume PS- G. Cartier: nice presentation yesterday. Jazz is very cool.

Great! XEmacs already provides half of this. Simply double-click on an S-expression while holding the Control key. Unfortunately, you cannot replace a selection with it, though, just copy. Also, to emulate the exact Jazz feature, you should not replace any text if it is not selected. Thanks Guillaume! -- Dominique Boucher
Hi everyone, For reference, the idea came from Macintosh Common Lisp (MCL) where they used to call it mouse-copy. Guillaume Cartier
