bug#1304: M-% not interpreted correctly - restatement.

bug#1304: M-% not interpreted correctly - restatement.

[Robert Dunn]

GNU Emacs 22.2.1 (x86_64-suse-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.9)

M-% (replace) returns M-1/2 on the message line at the bottom

All subsequent keystrokes produce strange characters.

The "%" character does appear properly in normal text.

Two screenshots - one taken after the command M-% was
issued and one typing the same characters as before showing the change -
can be viewed at
http://emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1304

If there is anything else you need please ask.

Regards

Robert

please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file

Sorry for the late response.  I have not been able to reproduce it.  Do
you see it with Emacs from CVS or the 23.0.95 pretest?  Also, do you see
the problem with `emacs -Q'?

More information was requested three years ago, but apparently wasn't
given, so I'm closing this bug report.  Please reopen if it's still
valid.
