Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
The news says:
*** `region-active-p' returns non-nil when Transient Mark mode is
enabled and there is an active region. This is NOT the best function
to use to test whether a command should operate on the region instead
of the usual behavior -- for that, use `use-region-p'.
However, kill-ring-save uses region-active-p, is that not contradictory?
BTW, the doc string of use-region-p seems to make little sense.
Best,
Leo
