Did you perhaps quit while the output of a shell-command was being displayed, because it took too long? In that situation Emacs can end up in a state where (minibuffer-window) points to the *Shell Command Output* buffer, and kill-buffer will refuse to kill the buffer. You can reset the minibuffer window with (set-window-buffer (minibuffer-window) (get-buffer " *Minibuf-0*")) Andreas. -- Andreas Schwab, schwab@linux-m68k.org GPG Key fingerprint = 58CA 54C7 6D53 942B 1756 01D3 44D5 214B 8276 4ED5 "And now for something completely different."
