Uh, no, clearly I don't feel that something is wrong. Otherwise, I wouldn't have used that as default value. Why would anyone expect such a paren to be balanced preceding a prompt? Where/how did you actually see the error/warning message you posted about this? But anyone can change the text used for this. That's the point of having it as a user option. > I think the current default [%s] is better than the > default value that you propose. OK. "Les go=FBts et les couleurs, =E7a ne se discute pas." Is "the current" really a default? Or is it instead hardcoded? FWIW, I use recursive minibuffers often. A prompt prefix of "N) " is fine, IMO. > But I agree that the format could be customizable. Good. ___ What's more, I also color the minibuffer background a slightly different hue each time you enter a new level. That's probably relevant only for a standalone minibuffer frame. But it makes a tremendous difference, even though the hue change is very slight. I pretty much never look at the actual level number in the prompt. Instead, I recognize the hue change, and in particular the hues of the top and second levels - I sense the level subconsciously. ___ FWIW, I'm all for making a recursive edit or a recursive minibuffer more obvious. For the former, my tiny library `rec-edit.el' highlights the recursive-edit brackets in the mode line to make it more obvious when you're in a recursive edit and what the level is. https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/RecursiveEdit#rec-edit.el https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/download/rec-edit.el
