<div>Sorry - yes I DID mean shift+down once
the selection is highlighted not down by itself.<br>

I checked my keybinding settings as you asked and they are the
same as you mentioned.<br>
<br>
I've been trying out previous versions (to find where the
behaviour changed). <br>
I've since re-installed 5.3.3 completely and it's behaving
correctly now, so I assume it's something else that caused the
problem.<br>
Perhaps I should have done that before bothering the list here.
Sorry.<br>
<br>
Still it seems to be back to usual now. <br><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888">

Just to double check: you mean shift-down, not just

DrRacket does indeed implement those keystrokes itself,
but I'm seeing what<br>
you describe as the 5.3.1 behavior in 5.3.3 and in the
git head under mac<br>
os x and under a relatively recent git version under
linux.<br>
<br>
When you choose the Edit | Keybindings | Show Active
Keybindings menu item<br>
and search for home, do you see
"select-to-beginning-of-file" as the<br>
c:s:home key and when you search for "s:down" do you see
"select-down" as<br>
the corresponding keystroke?<br>

No, I think he meant down. I noticed something similar some
time after upgrading to 5.3.2. I use c:space to "set mark"
and c:n to move forward a character in Emacs with the
intention of later doing a selection between mark and point.
In 5.3.1, I was able to do this in DrRacket, that is, the
Emacs cursor commands extended the selection. Now it doesn't
happen any more. I did look in the keybindings and notice
that shift seemed to be needed now. Still haven't figured
out if I want to change the keybindings or change my
behaviour. --PR
