I will try this when it happens next time. The problem is that this

I'm not sure if I can try this, because 1) I usually use just vi, but not
emacs, and 2) I don't know when it happens. Maybe I'll just keep running
emacs until I see this problem again.
I'll let you know when I have this problem again.
