No problem for me. I'll start with this. Could we document this meaning of mode-line-process in the docstring? Currently, it just says | Mode-line control for displaying info on process status. | Normally nil in most modes, since there is no process to display. I'll come later with a proposal about progress-reporter extension for 24.2. (Honestly, I'm making slow progress, 'cause there are several serious problems in asynchronous file operations I haven't solved yet) > Stefan Best regards, Michael.
