Re: Buffer's point changes when frame closed.

Jeff> Yes. Just checked again. In a fresh xemacs -vanilla? I _still_ can't get that sequence to work the way you say it does on Linux (21.4.12 prerelease), or cygwin (21.4.10 Windows[3]). Jeff> This behavior surprised me the first time I ran into it. Jeff> I'm not suggesting that it be fixed, in fact, the fix might Jeff> be more surprising. Now that you're used to it :(. However, the behavior your describe in a vanilla XEmacs is a bug. The selected window "saves" its point in the buffer point, and unless you select another window and its frame containing that buffer, that buffer point should not change, and should be restored when you switch buffers back in the selected window. The obvious hypothesis is that you have something in your init file that is causing this. A second possibility would be window managers selecting the other frame without your intervention, but it seems unlikely in principle, and very likely that on Windows we have the same window manager (mine is Windows 2000 [Japanese]). If it's not one of those, I'm at a total loss. Jeff> The original reporter claims that he does not have the same Jeff> buffer opened in multiple windows, so this isn't the issue Jeff> anyway. Not for him, but I sure don't like it. -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
