Hey,
Just found out about avy, after using ace for a looong time, it looks really awesome, thanks!

I was a bit puzzled by avy-copy-region following behavior:

  1. I have two or more buffers opened
  2. Point is in a certain position in buffer A
  3. I use avy-copy-region and select a region in buffer B
  4. The lines are copied to buffer B's point, instead of the buffer A.
    Is this the desired behavior?

Also, why after selecting the first line, second line selection uses different key combinations? its slightly confusing..

One last comment: when point is in buffer A, and I use avy-copy-region on buffer B, after selecting the first line in buffer B, perhaps selection combos in all other buffers should not be seen, as it makes no sense to copy a region "across" two buffers (trying that resulted in some really unpredictable results!)

Thanks!

Thanks, tested! it now pastes the copied region to the correct buffer. Awesome!

What about the other two points:

  1. keeping line selection keys constant between first line and second line selection
  2. allowing the region to span a single source buffer only

Should I open different cases for these?

Yes, with details please.
