This is not a critical bug, but it would be nice to fix this if possible. Also the prompt of key-reading commands (like `C-h k') is not highlighted using the `minibuffer-prompt' face. This could be fixed as well. - -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/ _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug ------- End of forwarded message -------
