Tooltip are for me normally over point, and therefore over the text most recently written, hiding it. I need it to go away to see what I wrote last so I can continue there. To be able to do it I must either insert some character I don't really want to type or reach over for the mouse. -- Did you ever realize how much text fits in eighty columns? If you now consider that a signature usually consists of up to four lines, this gives you enough space to spread a tremendous amount of information with your messages. So seize this opportunity and don't waste your signature with bullshit nobody will read. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
