- Hello,
-
- I am trying to write a piece of code in GNU Emacs Lisp.
-
- Does anybody know how I might select some text from the current buffer and copy it
- into a second buffer? Also, if the copied text is altered, how to replace the copied
- text into the original buffer.
-
- A secondary problem is how to process a buffer and create a data structure(whatever
- the data structure might be) of the words in a sentence.
-
- This, if you are interested, is for a grammar checking integrated into GNU Emacs.
-
- Thanks
-
- Alan Taylor.
