165 which that character starts or ends. If you click on a character with
166 string-delimiter syntax (such as a singlequote or doublequote in C), it
167 sets the region around the string constant (using heuristics to figure
168 out whether that character is the beginning or the end of it).

187 Many graphical applications follow the convention that insertion while text
188 is selected deletes the selected text. You can make Emacs behave this
189 way by enabling Delete Selection mode---with @kbd{M-x
190 delete-selection-mode} or using Custom. Another effect of this mode
191 is that @key{DEL}, @kbd{C-d} and some other keys, when a selection
192 exists, will kill the whole selection. It also enables Transient Mark
193 mode (@pxref{Transient Mark}).
