Hi everyone, this is the first time I report a bug. In order to reproduce the bug I did exactly the following: 1. Start emacs: emacs -Q 2. Paste the following code in the scratch buffer: (defvar box-cursor t) (defun test/set-cursor() "Set cursor in all frames depending on the active state." (interactive) (dolist (frame (frame-list)) (with-selected-frame frame (if box-cursor (progn (modify-frame-parameters frame (list (cons 'cursor-type 'box))) (modify-frame-parameters frame (list (cons 'cursor-color "#00A9FE")))) (progn (modify-frame-parameters frame (list (cons 'cursor-type 'hbar))) (modify-frame-parameters frame (list (cons 'cursor-color "green"))) ))))) (defun test/enter-minibuffer() (setq box-cursor nil) (test/set-cursor)) (defun test/exit-minibuffer() (setq box-cursor t) (test/set-cursor)) (add-hook 'minibuffer-setup-hook #'test/enter-minibuffer) (add-hook 'minibuffer-exit-hook #'test/exit-minibuffer) (server-start) (make-frame) ;; Call M-x (execute-extended-command) and you will see: ;; It is not possible to write in the minibuffer ;; Killing the previously created frame seems to solve the issue. 3. M-x -> eval-buffer -> RET 4. M-x (The bug appears, it is not possible to write in the minibuffer) Note: As soon as the new frame is destroyed, it is possible again to write in the minibuffer.
