[...] I finally found why I didn't saw messages displayed in the echo area during emacs startup. My emacs initial frame was greater than my screen size, and the echo area was hidden! In fact, as I work on a laptop I had setup my Emacs geometry to "96x35+-4+-4" so that Emacs will occupy all the screen at startup. Since your latest change, given the above geometry, I actually get an initial frame geometry of "96x38+-4+-4". The height is added 3, which I suppose is the tool bar height. I just setup the geometry to "96x32+-4+-4" to see again my echo area! IMO, the previous behavior was better because it respected the geometry specified by the user. Hope this will help. Sincerely, David
