I am running XEmacs 21.0 Toggenburg on my SGI box, and decide that
since I have an NT on the corner of my desk, I should run Exceed on it
and get another monitor for XEmacs.
I normally have no problem running on multiple displays. I will dial
in from home and attach/detach that display. However, something is
going on, and maybe it's Exceed, but it seems weird.
The first weirdness is that every time an XEmacs frame on my SGI would
gain focus, it would pop up a "*MIME-Drop data*" buffer. I tracked
that down by replacing the `experimental-dragdrop-drop-functions' with
my own function that throws an error.
Here is the backtrace:
It appears that XEmacs thinks that it is getting a drop event, even
though it is a normal window-enter. Here are the event and object
from the callback:
event: #<misc-user-event (dragdrop-drop-dispatch (dragdrop-MIME
(("application/octet-stream") "8bit" "")))>,
object: (dragdrop-MIME ((application/octet-stream) 8bit ))
Of course, it gets worse. When I then close the XEmacs frame on the
NT, the next time I move focus into an SGI frame, I get the following
stack trace on a SEGV.
Of course, this is all running -vanilla.
Does anybody have a similar problem? Does anyone run a similar
configuration and not have this problem?
