Re: keymap changes in run-with-timer
selecting a keymap (e.g. when changing minor-mode, creating 'keymap overlays, setting overriding-local-map, use-local-map) in a run-with-timer or run-with-idle-timer event doesn't take immediate effect. Consider the following example: (run-with-timer 3 nil '(lambda () (let ((map (make-sparse-keymap))) (define-key map x y) (use-local-map map)) (message timer fired))) After the message timer fired, pressing the x key still inserts an x. Only beginning with the second time it will insert a y. Indeed it does: the list of active keymaps is computed right before calling `read', i.e. right when going idle at the end of the previous command. It would probably be good to delay it, but this is not very high priority. I've added it to the TODO list.

(Mumamo is here: http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/MuMaMo) I have a workaround there for this. I call top-level after such changes (in this case after changing major mode in a timer). ___ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug

Thank you for pointing that out; it works well. It is unfortunate that it prints out Back to top level every time. My workaround so far has been to merge the keymap into the current map using define-key, one entry at a time. regards, Nikolaj Schumacher ___ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
