I have used it, but not in occur buffers. I'll try. >> difference'. It's impossible to use the mouse-pointer as a reading-aid >> to check the `fine differences' step-by-step.

I'd never seen someone use the mouse pointer as a reading aid I normally don't do that either, but with ediff I do: the small ediff frame has the focus, left hand on the keyboard presses the space bar to move from difference to difference, right hand moves mouse pointer from one `fine difference' to the next in the buffer with the latest version. > (it seems more common for people to use packages like avoid.el to > move the mouse cursor out of sight). Obviously in such a case > tooltips are really annoying. Have you tried M-x tooltip-mode RET ? I think tooltip-mode is nice most of the time, so I haven't tried that. I'd have to turn tooltip-mode off only in ediff-mode-hook, I think. But in ediff, what are these "Difference region 1 -- non-current" and "Difference region 1 -- current" tooltips trying to tell me, anyway? I'm in difference region one, but that I can also see in the bottom line of the small ediff-frame. What is this "current"/"non-current" about? I can see that `fine differences' are "non-current" and the rest of the difference region is "current". (info "(ediff)Highlighting Difference Regions") doesn't explain this, it is only about the faces. Maybe those tooltips are superfluous and should be taken out? -- Christian Schlauer _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
