Re: Changes to emacs/lisp/progmodes/grep.el

[Richard Stallman]

    ** Fix the kill/yank treatment of invisible text. At the moment,
      invisible text is placed in the kill-ring, so that the contents of
      the ring may not correspond to the text as displayed to the user. It
      ought to be possible to omit text which is invisible (due to a
      text-property, overlay, or selective display) from the kill-ring.

    It would be quite easy to implement: for example, to create a new
    boolean option, e.g. `yank-as-displayed',

The idea is to change kill, not change yank.
