Fixed the bug that 'back-to-indentation' operation breaks "." repeating
Hi, Please find attached my patch file to fix the bug as described in the title. York
Sorry I should have explained this in a little more details. The problem was that if you make some changes, then press "M-m" (key binding for the `back-to-indentation') to get to the first non-whitespace character of the current line, you wouldn't be able to repeat anything afterwards. This was what this patch trying to address. To me, 'back-to-indentation' is handy because I feel it is easier than pressing "0" plus "w".

And pressing "^" is even easier ;) Frank

Thanks for reminding, I almost fogot this because of not using it for a long time. However I don't think "^" is easier than "M-m" because both "ALT" and "m" are next to home row, I press ALT using my thumb so it's much easier than pressing SHIFT and of course "m" is much easier than "6". Give "M-m" a go and you might like it. York

Ah, forgot that we have different keyboard layout ... I do not need SHIFT on mine ;) Frank

Just curious about what keyboard layout you are using if you don't mind my asking and how do you feel? I'm using dvorak layout, but the top line number keys are still the same. York

Just curious about what keyboard layout you are using German QWERTZ
if you don't mind my asking and how do you feel? You ask because those layouts are so bad for your hands? I'd been using the neo layout (something like dvorak for German) but a had troubles when working an someone else's computer with a traditional layout, so I switched back to QWERTZ with some adjustments for characters that are important for programming and in bad position on QWERTZ (e.g., {}[]()\ and so on).

That was different with neo ;) Frank

Yes, still suffering actually although is getting better.

I heard that somebody can type fluently on both layouts. I've just started on Dvorak for less than two months and am still not fluent on this new layout yet (probably because I have used auto-complete too much), I plan to be switching back to QWERTZ from time to time to keep myself from forgetting it.

May I ask why this fix seemed to not have been wanted?
