I always had - how else can you do it? But the problems only started after the series of changes following the release of Emacs 22. I was mainly annoyed by the continuous resizing of the echo area, especially when eldoc tries to analyze doc-strings or comments. So I first wrote some workaround until I found out that customizing the faces suffices. Meanwhile I show eldoc-strings either in the header-line, a separate window, or in a tooltip - but none of them work satisfactorily :-( Anyway: The recentering is a misbehavior which should not occur. Does Emacs restore the old situation when the echo area sizes back? martin
