Emacs 24中的班次选择不会突出显示文本

Question

I must be stupid, but I just switched to Emacs 24, and holding Shift while moving the point no longer highlights text. Mouse selection works as before. What am I missing? Did I turn it off by chance? Or has Shift selection been deemed unergonomical so we have some other, better keyboard-based selection at hand?

Answer 1

Shift selection is enabled by default in Emacs 24.

You can always run emacs -Q to disable your init file and any other default libraries, in order to determine what Emacs' default behaviour is.

You can also run emacs -q which will disable only your init file (other system-wide init files can be loaded).

If the feature works without your init file and does not work with it, you can then start to narrow down what part of your init file is at fault (often by commenting out functionality until the feature starts working as expected -- note Drew's comment).

In this case I suggest that you firstly verify (using Ch v ) that the shift-select-mode variable is non- nil (when running with your normal configuration), as a nil value means that shift selection is disabled.

我还发现查看load-path变量Ch v load-path是有用的，它将我引导到了culprits，旧的elpa包。
