Subject: bug#10803: 24.0.93; execute-kbd-macro doesn't preserve current buffer
Date: Mon, 13 Feb 2012 22:54:26 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <817gzq8x4l.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
Copy the below snippet to scratch buffer and C-x C-e it.
(with-temp-buffer
(message "1:%s" (buffer-name))
(execute-kbd-macro "ab")
(message "2:%s" (buffer-name))
"Done")
This is what gets printed in the message buffer.
1: *temp*<2>
2:*scratch*
"Done"
I am wondering why execute-kbd-macro is meddling with the current
buffer, (that too in not so useful way).
This bug is raised as a post-mortem of the following thread in
help-gnu-emacs which deals with transliteration from Roman text to
Hindi.
