I don't know what dictionary-el or your mode do but, if possible, its best to add tooltips through the `help-echo' text property. > Currently I use an own timer an lots of ugly code to work arround this. > > > This means that they can be toggled independently.

If dictionary-el is generally useful and it needs GUD-type tooltips then the best way to do this might be to make it part of Emacs. -- Nick http://www.inet.net.nz/~nickrob _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
