Deleting selection

[Patrick-Poitras]

Hello.

I'd like for the behavior of inserting a pair with a highlighted region to be replacing the region with the pair.

That is, if I have this is a |thing with thing highlighted, I'd like the insertion of "(" to result in this is a (). Currently it gives this is a (thing) when sp-autowrap-region is t, and this is a ()thing when it is nil.

Delete-selection-mode is t.

This currently doesn't seem to be supported, but I guess it actually is the correct behaviour to replace the selection with a pair in your case of settings.

I have created an issue #1164 to track the fix. I'll close this discussion.
