I am a reformed vi user, trying to switch completely to GnuEmacs
and MicroGnu (mg). One thing I frequently find myself needing to
do is prefix a region with some character. Mg has a nice function
called "prefix-region" to do that but surprisingly I could not
find an equivalent in GnuEmacs 18.48. So when I am running GnuEmacs,
I have to pipe the region through a "sed s/./>&/p", yank it
out of the other window and paste it into my buffer and kill
the old region.

Can some mlisp guru post the function "prefix-region" (as
found in mg) in mlisp so that I can put it in my load path ?

As they used to say, thanks in advance for your help.
