M-x causing vertical window shrinkage

M-x causing vertical window shrinkage

[Burton Samograd]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 3088 bytes --]

Hello,

I did a trunk pull of emacs bzr today (Sept 14, 2012) and did a full build on Ubuntu Server 12.04LTS in a VM after doing an 'apt-get build-dep emacs'.  When I run emacs using the Cygwin X server for display on my windows host, every time I do an M-x on an un-maximized window the window shrinks by 1 row in size.

Here is the final output of my ./configure:

Configured for `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu'.

  Where should the build process find the source code?    /home/burton/emacs-bzr/devel

  Where do we find X Windows header files?                Standard dirs
  Where do we find X Windows libraries?                   Standard dirs
  Does Emacs use -lXaw3d?                                 no

  Does Emacs use -lrsvg-2?                                yes

Window shrinkage does not occur in a maximized window.

I apologize for the footer on my message as it is automatically  added by our company mail servers and I cannot turn it off.

This is a feature.  Keep doing it, and pretty soon Emacs shrinks to oblivion and
never bothers you again.  We call this the "butterfly's revenge".

Nevermind, it's my black box window manager that I have installed. Sorry for the noise.
