Sometimes it works and plaut> sometimes it doesn't (within only (mouse-select-mode 1) in plaut> .emacs). very strange..... I and others reported this here three times already (I think). Once I contacted RMS about it and he said to use gdb to debug. Now imagine tracing something like this with gdb! Intermittent, requires multiple programs, involves X server ... horror. Not to speak about the resources needed just to build emacs with full debugging info. Looks like this will never get fixed unless someone is paid to track it down. If you still stand behind the hypothesis in your penultimate post that selecting something in emacs triggers it, you got further than I did, though. Is that the case - your last post is ambiguous. -- Optimist: We're only two weeks behind schedule. Pessimist: The schedule is a whole two weeks ahead of us.
