================================================================ Dear Bug Team! I have been using 21.4.13 compiled --with-gtk without major problems, except that sound did not work, so I tried a recompile without gtk, and with both esd and native sound enabled. Now sound works, but no matter what I do I keep getting this "Fontifying buffer" with the stop button not working, and I can only stop it by invoking Control-G. The minubuffer displays Fontifying region...(wrong-type-argument markerp nil). I have had similar problems with xemacs-21.5.13beta, but somehow managed to stop them. I am reverting to the gtk-version, but would appreciate any suggestions on how to fix the font-lock problems ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- uname -a: Linux goylem 2.4.20-20.1.2007.nptl #1 Thu May 29 12:12:30 EDT 2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux ./configure '--with-canna=no' '--with-wnn=no' '--pdump' '--ldflags=-s' '--with-gtk=no' '--with-sound=esd,native' '--with-gif' XEmacs 21.4.13 "Rational FORTRAN" configured for `i686-pc-linux'.
