M-x emacs-version RET is GNU Emacs 24.0.92.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.20.1) of 2011-12-22 I eval (defvar a nil) (setq a (selected-window)) in the *scratch*-Buffer. Then I work a little bit (2 minutes or so) without touching the window that displays the *scratch* buffer. Then I eval (window-live-p a) via M-: . In some cases (I cannot figure out what to do exactly), nil is returned, although I did not touch the window. Whats wrong? Adam
