Subject: what mode?: double-quote yields nothing until next keystroke; how to turn off?
Date: Mon, 26 Nov 2007 11:10:34 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <999367.32069.qm@web53311.mail.re2.yahoo.com> (raw)
Somehow I keep accidentally getting Emacs into a mode
in which a double-quote keystroke yields nothing until
I press another key, at which time Emacs inserts the
two characters I meant (or one character composed from
them).
What mode is this? (Where is its documentation? I
haven't had any luck googling and otherwise looking
for it.)
How do I control that mode?
Mainly, how do I turn it back off (or disable it
entirely)?
Also, how did I probably activate it?
(emacs-version reports:
"GNU Emacs 22.1.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of
2007-06-02 on RELEASE")
Thanks,
Daniel
