Dear Bug Team!
I get a "Cannot switch buffers in minibuffer window" error message
when I do the following. I can reproduce this at will with 'xemacs -q'.
1. Start with a single buffer.
2. Do 'C-x 2'
3. Go to the bottom buffer.
4. Do 'C-x 3'
5. Go the right hand side buffer.
6. Do 'C-x b' (switch-to-buffer here). Give any buffer name or even
'RET' for the default choice.
I see the following error:
Signaling: (error "Cannot switch buffers in minibuffer window")
signal(error ("Cannot switch buffers in minibuffer window"))
cerror("Cannot switch buffers in minibuffer window")
apply(cerror "Cannot switch buffers in minibuffer window" nil)
error("Cannot switch buffers in minibuffer window")
switch-to-buffer("*Backtrace*")
call-interactively(switch-to-buffer)
(dispatch-event "[internal]")
I am not sure what other information would be useful. Please let me
know and I can get it (since I can reproduce this at will). Thanks.
