Sorry for the confusion, this is only on Aquamacs. The other builds I've
tried don't have the problem, but they are missing some of the other
niceties of Aquamacs like SVN support. Also, it's very odd that I'm using
the same color-theme package, but the colors are different in some of the
themes (classic, for example). I tend to fuss too much with things like that.

Could be it depends on swapping Alt and Cmd keys. But then you can't input characters with Alt-<key> ... -- Greetings Pete In a world without walls and fences, who needs gates and windows?

You can't use transient-mark-mode together with cua-mode, which is enabled in Aquamacs. You can turn it off: (cua-mode nil) (transient-mark-mode t) If that works, would you please be so kind as to update the Aquamacs Wiki with a tip? About the color-themes, I don't know. They haven't been modified. I guess that different versions are installed. Thanks -- Dave
