OK, but I had sound turned off (as I usually do). But that's a good reminder. Still, that does not distinguish this situation from, as you say, C-g and other events. > > I look in *Messages* but nothing is recorded there ("normal"). >=20 > You should see "Quit" there, which is a sign that none of the > possible selections were chosen, i.e. the dialog was dismissed > without making a selection. Maybe Quit was there, but there are lots of Quits in *Messages*. Again, that does not distinguish this situation. And I did not dismiss any dialog without making a selection. I never saw any dialog. I never saw any question posed, in any manner. > > There should have been a file dialog displayed, and it should > > have waited for me to click y or n to dismiss it. > > > > Do `M-x debug-on-entry diredp-mouse-find-file-other-frame', then > > repeat: click `M-mouse-2' on the same (modified) file.

What I see when using the debugger is what I normally see when Emacs asks a question using a dialog box. > as Emacs tried to emulate a dialog box with a menu. No idea what that means or why it is important.

I understood only part of what you wrote. But this part I understand, at least. Thx.
