Subject: q doesn't always quit *Help*
Date: Wed, 26 Sep 2007 11:54:56 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <DHEEKFAFJEFOJHLCFPFDOEGBCBAA.drew.adams@oracle.com> (raw)

There are plenty of contexts where `q' in *Help* does not quit. I and
others have reported some in the past. Here is another:

emacs -Q

C-h f forward-char

C-x 0 ; so *Help* is the only window

q ; Does nothing.


In general, View-mode quitting is a complex mess.


In GNU Emacs 22.1.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
 of 2007-06-02 on RELEASE
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600
configured using `configure --with-gcc (3.4) --cflags -Ic:/gnuwin32/include'
