There must be some kind of misunderstanding here. I understand that you need to know where the mouse was clicked, but that information is stored in the mouse event that invokes the function, so if you use `(interactive "e")', you will have access to that information inside the function. Given this, what information is thrown away? _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
