please answer the dialog box
I've seen now in a couple of contexts that actions which pop up a
dialog box hang my XEmacs, no matter what answer I give to the box. I
just had to kill to get out; no number of C-g would break out.
Lisp backtrace follows:
next-command-event(#<empty-event>)
byte-code("..." [next-command-event event misc-user-event-p event-object yes
throw ynp-done t no nil abort menu-no-selection-hook signal quit button-release-event-p
beep message "please answer the dialog box"] 3)
# (catch ynp-done ...)
# bind (echo-keystrokes event prompt)
yes-or-no-p-dialog-box("Buffer *sent reply to BRIAN STOFFREGEN* modified; kill
anyway? ")
# bind (prompt)
yes-or-no-p("Buffer *sent reply to BRIAN STOFFREGEN* modified; kill anyway?
