The window id as given in the X event structure of the event x_event_to_emacs_event is dealing with and whether you can find this id some where in 'xwininfo -tree' Note that below for the 'magic' X events the event dropped onto the floor when x_any_window_to_frame == 0 [1]. Maybe the same thing should be done for keyboard events? Jan Footnotes: [1] And that is wrong for other reasons for things like SelectionClear.

I presume it is legal for me to use. It is very depressing how difficult this situation is.

Maybe there is some race condition where XEmacs thinks it has deleted the window but X still thinks it is there? Jan

Bad thing is, it is used by > make-mode.el without even a require. What is the right fix? make-mode should require it for starters. Maybe regexp-opt needs to be moved. What does it buy one, exactly?

"xwininfo -tree" informs me... xwininfo: Window id: 0x4c00029 "emacs: *Summary comp.emacs.xemacs*" Root window id: 0x26 (the root window) (has no name) Parent window id: 0x1808752 (has no name) 1 child: 0x4c0002a (has no name): () 1267x976+0+0 +5+21 10 children: 0x4c002db (has no name): () 1244x15+4+933 +9+954 0x4c002a2 (has no name): () 15x866+1248+67 +1253+88 0x4c002b1 (has no name): () 15x206+1248+67 +1253+88 0x4c002d9 (has no name): () 481x15+4+258 +9+279 0x4c0015f (has no name): () 15x191+485+67 +490+88 0x4c0012b (has no name): () 15x661+485+287 +490+308 0x4c0014b (has no name): () 481x15+4+258 +9+279 0x4c002b3 (has no name): () 1244x15+4+258 +9+279 0x4c0002c (has no name): () 1267x950+0+26 +5+47 0x4c0002b (has no name): () 1265x24+0+0 +5+21 And gdb reveals... (gdb) p/x x_event->xany.window $49 = 0x4c002d9 ...being the 4th child down in the list. BTW... (gdb) p x_event->xkey.keycode $50 = 46 ...which is an `l', the 2nd of the keystrokes I'd hit when XEmacs tripped over the SEGV. Hm, given the window name cited by xwininfo, I guess my recollection about Gnus having cleaned itself out to just the *Group* buffer was incorrect -- it hadn't gotten quite that far yet. If you need to see how my Gnus-involved XEmacs usually looks (if it matters to understanding what all the child windows are), take a peek at http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~karl/gnus/pterodactyl/sample.gif. --karl

I rewrote the whole write-out logic so it is actually (more) logic[1], when I merged it in with the theme stuff. Jan Footnotes: [1] It was already ugly before. You addition of yet another case just made it cross the annoyance barrier.

I think > the current situation is hopeless and I give up. Join the club :-( There are just too many failure modes for using pgp 5 style signatures right now. Combine that with the fact that mailcrypt was never designed to be a library and bingo! The right scenario would be 1. We sign with pgp 2.6 for now 2. somebody writes a true digsignature.el that does its own parsing of the PGP armor and can accurately distinguish between 1. false signature. 2. PGP 5 sign used but only pgp 2.6 availaible 3. PGP 2.6 sign used but only gpg-norsa available 4. PGP available, but not setup for the user 5. no PGP available. [Note: I have seen all of these in real life except 1.] 3. This gets embedded in to package-get.el 4. We try again. > As am I. I now have a pgp 2.6.3 binary built from sources off of > replay.com. Should I try signing with that version instead? That would be heaven for now. Jan
