Raman, Modification of any buffer sets deactivate-mark to t. Consider the simple example: (let ((deactivate-mark nil)) (with-temp-buffer (insert "test")) deactivate-mark) ==> t Command loop then checks that deactivate-mark is t and destroys the active status of the mark. That is the problem. You should rebind deactivate-mark arround modification of dtk scratch buffer or any other buffer when this modification must not deactivate the mark. T. V.
