C-h k is overly verbose/wrong for some menu bindings

Some menu bar entries refer to the same lisp function: All entries on Edit=Select and Paste=[kill ring item] runs menu-bar-select-yank. Buffers selectable from the Buffer=[buffer name] menu runs menu-bar-select-buffer. Now, if I run C-h k and click on one of the above item, I get something

Re: debugging Lisp nesting exceeds max-lisp-eval-depth error?

I found a way of reproducing the problem, so I was able to get a backtrace in the lisp debugger before the depth got too great: Debugger entered--entering a function: * tramp-file-name-handler(expand-file-name /home/chris/emacs/tramp.elc.gz /[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/moore_cm/) [...] *

Re: gnus-carpal-mode and mouse-autoselect-window

Functions that expect an argument to be a position (an integer), but accept a marker as a substitute, normally ignore the marker buffer. The meaning of this sentence isn't clear to me. If marker M points to position P in buffer A and you're in buffer B, (goto-char M) will go to position P in

Re: treat .xpi as archive file

But wouldn't it be better instead of these extension to add ZIP magic string PK^C^D to `magic-mode-alist' to recognize archive files for any possible extension? Yes, in principle (like compressed files), but please don't mess with that now. I tend to agree it is better to

Re: poor additions in quail/latin-ltx

When the Emacs implementation of multilingual menus gets good enough, at some point we might start putting some into Emacs. I don't understand what isn't good enough about the GTK menus for this now that most Emacs characters can be encoded in utf-8. For Emacs to USE

BibTeX-mode: Key generation when latin-1 characters appear in author field

This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation, not to your local site managers! Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers usually do not have translators to read other languages for them. Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org

cvs-version doesn't build

Hi, I've been trying to build the cvs-version several times, but it always fails. I have done ./autogen.sh CFLAGS='-O3 -march=pentium3' ./configure --prefix=/usr/local \ --with-gtk \ --with-xpm --with-jpeg --with-tiff --with-gif --with-png make bootstrap which fails with Loading

M-x ediff-backup RET should offer current buffer as `file'?

Hello! This isn't a bug but a (tiny) feature request. M-x ediff-buffers RET offers the current buffer as one of the buffers to compare: ,[ M-x ediff-buffers RET ] | Buffer A to compare: (default test.txt) ` M-x ediff-backup RET, on the other hand, does not offer the current buffer as

Now, press `C-c C-c' inside the entry -- Emacs suggests `blöd05:_test' as the key to use -- and hit RET: Emacs writes in the minibuffer `New inserted entry yields duplicate key'. Does the patch below fix the problem for you? Stefan --- bibtex.el 26 jan 2005 14:25:43 -0500

Re: junk in *grep* buffers

It would seem much safer to do the translation of escape sequences to text-properties in the process filter (maybe it could add a `font-lock-face' property, so that the displayed result would honor font-lock-mode). Would someone like to try implementing this? Do these escape

No way to exit Emacs

It appears that there is no way to exit Emacs if you don't have security permission to write to the home directory. Although Emacs asks Do you want to quit anyway no response actually allows you to exit Emacs if it can't save .emacs-places due to a security/permissions error.
