I think this isn't a bug -- the `with-current-buffer' form of course restores the current buffer to be "a" after the wrapped code is finished; why would you expect differently? As I understand it, what `pop-to-buffer' does is set the window-buffer of the selected window, in _addition_ to setting the current buffer, and the main emacs interaction loop always restores the current buffer to be the window-buffer of the selected window when you look for the next command. So in your example, `pop-to-buffer' sets the current buffer and the window-buffer-of-selected-widnow to be "b", then the `with-current-buffer' form (correctly) restores the current buffer to be "a" again, then you print your message [which says "current buffer is a"], then the interaction loop goes to read a command, which sets the current buffer based on the window state -- which is "b", because of pop-to-buffer's effect. -Miles -- Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
