The fixes are not contained in Emacs-21.2, so it seems they would have been judged not important enough for the bug fix release 21.2, which I find unfortunate. The bugs are not present in the current CVS version, however, so it may be hoped that they will not make it into 21.3. As the main author of preview-latex, and the author of these patches, I would recommend applying them at the very least when you are installing preview-latex. They are rather certainly not causing more trouble than the original behavior. They have been tested, and either they. or equivalent changes, have been put into the current Emacs sources long ago. The bugs will affect every package using overlays with keymaps of their own, not just preview-latex. I don't know, however, whether there are packages around where the impact is as annoying as here. rlb@defaultvalue.org (Rob Browning) writes: > A recent report suggests Emacs 21.2 may have a bug which interacts > with the preview-latex package.

I will update preview-latex documentation to state that those bugs remain in Emacs-21.2. Pity. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum Email: David.Kastrup@t-online.de
