I'm using (emacs-version) "GNU Emacs 23.1.1 (i386-apple-darwin9.7.0, NS apple-appkit-949.46) of 2009-08-05 on dirac.local" (ediff-version) "Ediff 2.81.2 of November 22, 2008" I run M-x ediff-files and select two files. Then on the Ediff control panel frame I press 'q' and I get ediff-cleanup-mess: Attempt to delete minibuffer or sole ordinary window in the *Messages* buffer. If in ediff-util.el.gz I remove the call to (delete-window) on that function then it _appears_ to work, but I'm sure that's not the right fix. Furthermore, if I press '?' in that same Ediff Control Panel frame I get another frame with the expanded help. Pressing '?' in that other frame brings me back to the smaller frame (Ediff Control Panel) but leaves the new expanded help frame around. This is different from the behaviour on Linux/X11 where it only resizes the frame. Any ideas what could be going on? Thanks, -Oscar P.S. I couldn't find how to subscribe to emacs-devel, so please CC me on any replies.
