List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Xref: main.gmane.org gmane.emacs.devel:8633 X-Report-Spam: http://spam.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel:8633 Hi. For a while I have been using the facilities to make the caret visible and use the system caret in order to run emacs under ms windows. HOwever, when I used the latest cvs version as of 10/17/02, the caret was not properly tracked at all, although it was still there, it didn't seem to do anything when I hit the arrows, although it did work when it was positioned in the echo area to find a file or other functions. I went back to an earlier version (w32-fns.c dated June 14) and it is working again, so somewhere after that it became broken. The version number of emacs in both cases is 21.3.50.1. Any assistance would be appreciated. -- John Covici covici@ccs.covici.com
