;;; Commentary:

;;; This file makes the active region be pending delete, meaning that
;;; text inserted while the region is active will replace the region contents.
;;; This is a popular behavior of personal computers text editors.

;;; Code:

(defvar delete-selection-mode t
  "*Non-nil means Delete Selection mode is enabled.
In Delete Selection mode, when a region is highlighted,
insertion commands first delete the region and then insert.")

(defun delete-active-region (&optional killp)
  (if killp
      (kill-region (point) (mark))
    (delete-region (point) (mark)))
  (setq mark-active nil)
  (run-hooks 'deactivate-mark-hook)
  t)

(defun delete-selection-pre-hook ()
  (if (and delete-selection-mode
	   (not buffer-read-only)
	   transient-mark-mode mark-active)
      (let ((type (and (symbolp this-command)
		       (get this-command 'delete-selection))))
	(cond ((eq type 'kill)
	       (delete-active-region t))
	      ((eq type 'yank)
	       ;; Before a yank command,
	       ;; make sure we don't yank the same region
	       ;; that we are going to delete.
	       ;; That would make yank a no-op.
	       (if (string= (buffer-substring (point) (mark))
			    (car kill-ring))
		   (current-kill 1))
	       (delete-active-region nil))
