In the days of using Sunview, I had the text edit preferences set to "adjust is pending delete" so if you overtype the selection, or backspaced on it, it was deleted. I REALLY like this. The question is whether there is an equivalent spell (ideally done via a resource you can stuff into the server) for the TextEdit widget in X11R4. I'm using Xmh and am going crazy having to type ^W to delete the selection before typing in the correction.
