Though it doesn't exactly look great on proportional displays either, of course.) As you can see, some of the menu entries have first columns that are quite wide, pushing the second column far past the right margin. I'm not sure whether to blame the automatic-dir-generation code in XEmacs for not saying "enough is enough" and just waiting until the next line at some point, or the info files for having menu entries like that, but it really doesn't look pleasant... (The reference to "#Dir#, however, is almost definitely the dir-generation code's fault -- I have it set to actually save the resulting dir files, and it evidently doesn't filter that out in the process...) ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- OS version: Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] OS: Windows_NT XEmacs 21.5-b29 "garbanzo" configured for `i586-pc-win32'.
