Now imagine a command that sends more than of them (not unlikely e.g. if there are a few hooks, each printing a message). Of course, only the last one is then visible. Is there any way for the next message to be printed with some delay, so that the previous one is still visible, say, for a second or two? I know about C-h e (view-echo-area-messages), but this is not what I'm after. TIA, -- Marcin Borkowski
