Re: [michael.cadilhac-@t-lrde.epita.fr: sit-for (detect_input_pending ?) and postfix input methods.]

["Richard M. Stallman" <rms@gnu.org>]

    Then, why does sit-for return t if unread-command-events is not
    nil?

That is a good question.  Should it return nil immediately
without waiting when unread-command-events is nonempty?
That would be more coherent than the current behavior.
It would also be an incompatible change, and might break something.

There are about 550 calls to sit-for in the Emacs sources.
To check all of them would be a lot of work.

Perhaps we should make this change now, so that the pretesting
for the release will help us see if anything breaks.
What do people think?


Anyway, I installed your flyspell.el change as a work-around.
