Subject: Re: The *Warnings* buffer and undo
Date: Fri, 30 Mar 2007 08:42:25 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1HXGQz-0004qD-TF@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <85y7lfsxso.fsf@lola.goethe.zz> (message from David Kastrup on Thu, 29 Mar 2007 20:35:19 +0200)

    Unrecorded changes turn the existing undo history useless.  While it
    could conceivably be nice if user changes could be undone, this won't
    work out.  The best that a program could do in this regard is set
    buffer-undo-list to t before doing its changes, and to nil afterwards.

That sounds like a good solution -- better than suppressing undo 100%
in that buffer.
