! Activate the mark without changing it, enable Transient Mark mode just

    One of the secondary features of Transient Mark mode is that certain
! commands operate on the region when there is an active region.  If you
! don't use Transient Mark mode, the region once set never becomes
! inactive, so there is no way these commands to make such a
  distinction.  Enabling Transient Mark mode momentarily gives you a way
  to use these commands on the region.
  
!   The other way momentarily use of Transient Mark mode is useful
! is that it highlights the region for the time being.
