Hi. Most likely the problem is my settings of Emacs. But I do not know what causes it. After booting Emacs, (I am not sure if it is due to the state of idling), "[ ]" appears around the name of mode. For example, if it is the org-mode, [[[...(org)...]]] if it is the scratch buffer, [[[...(Lisp Iteration)...]]] This seems to appear to all modes simultaneously. Seemingly it does not affect the continuation of my work, but it bothers because I do not understand why it is happening. Could anyone guess what is causing it? Thanks in advance. soichi
