I copied this region from the info buffer to do a demo The derivative of ln(ln(x)) is ln(ln(x)) when I point to this last line's formula, hit 'M-# e' it then moves the last line formula to the beginning of the line, then hit 'a d x' according to the doc to evaluate it, it does not insert the solution any where and it flashes some horizontal lines in the top line of the buffer and in the mini-buffer, as if it is not understanding the typed commands. it is only when I move the pointer to the x it works, and changes the last line from ln(ln(x)) to 1 / ln(x) x is this a bug? do I have to point the most inner argument to all nested operation for it to work? thanks
