Hi every one,
i just realized that `delete-char' is not fully documented:
Both in info and in the docstring.
delete-char use two arg, one for the number of char to delete and one to
push to kill-ring.
,----[ C-h f delete-char RET ]
| delete-char is an interactive built-in function in `C source code'.
|
| It is bound to <deletechar>, C-d.
|
| (delete-char n &optional killflag)
|
| Delete the following n characters (previous if n is negative).
| Optional second arg killflag non-nil means kill instead (save in kill ring).
| Interactively, n is the prefix arg, and killflag is set if
| n was explicitly specified.
|
| [back]

`----
That work as intended.
But when used interactively it have an extra feature that work like:
,----
| (defun del-reg (beg end)
| (interactive "r")
| (delete-region beg end))
`----
I think that need explanation somewhere in manual and docstring.
