I can't help you here. I've not tried cygwin's 23.0.92 yet, but I can't say I've noticed this on Linux, although because I don't have transient-mark-mode turned on, I wouldn't really expect to. > 2. in a file buffer, doing C-x C-f (find-file) and RET will not read > the file again, but instead invoke dired. 'Twas ever thus. I think you're confusing C-x C-f with C-x C-v (find-alternate-file). The former has always* defaulted to the current directory. The latter has always defaulted to the current filename. [TIP: if you haven't already, try ido-mode. It redefines all buffer and file selection functions, and although it takes a little while to learn to get the most out of it, IMHO you'll quickly wonder how you managed without it.] [*] within my admittedly patchy memory. I *have* verified that 21.2.1 (the earliest version I have at hand) worked this way, on both cygwin and Linux.
