================================================================
Dear Bug Team!
When I start XEmacs as built for the Solaris Companion CD, the cursor
(the image representing the mouse) gets stuck. For example, if I move
the cursor over the modeline, it changes to a vertical double arrow
(okay). But if I then move it back into a buffer (e.g., *scratch*),
it stays as a double arrow (bad).
This did not happen with 21.1.14.
The site-start.el that we use for the Companion CD is
(when (featurep 'tooltalk)
(load "tooltalk-macros")
(load "tooltalk-util")
(load "tooltalk-init"))
(when (featurep 'sparcworks)
(load "sunpro-init")
(load "ring")
(load "comint")
(load "annotations")
(sunpro-startup))
I have tracked the problem down to the following 2 lines in
sunpro-init.el (in the Sun package):
(set-glyph-image text-pointer-glyph "xterm")
(set-glyph-image nontext-pointer-glyph "xterm")
If I comment out those two lines, the problem goes away.
I don't know if this is a bug in the Sun package or a bug in 21.4.14.
I've looked at the Help and Info descriptions for set-glyph-image, and
so far I'm unable to get my head wrapped around how this stuff is
supposed to work.
I've also tried querying inside Sun to see if anyone understands how
this is supposed to work, without success.
Hyper-Apropos shows the values for the two glyphs as
`nontext-pointer-glyph' (buffer: *Hyper Apropos*, mode: Hyper-Apropos)
...
value:
#<glyph (pointer) #<image-specifier global=(((x) . [nothing]) ((tty) . [nothing])
((stream) . [cursor-font :data "xterm"])) fallback=((nil . [nothing]))
0x8c9>0x8c8>
