I have edited my screen to lay out my ZMACS and Lisp Listener windows in adjacent columns. This allows me to look at function definitions in their files while testing them in the Lisp Listener. This morning, after a cold boot, I found my machine in a new state. If I selected a file for editing from Dired, the file would be retrieved; but control would pass to the Lisp Listener! (In other words, the blinking cursor moved to the Lisp Listener window.) How did I get into this state; and (more importantly) how do I get OUT of it? (The same thing happens for any menu selection command in ZMACS.) It seems reasonable that for most commands I give to ZMACS, I would like to REMAIN in ZMACS! ========================================================================= USPS: Stephen Smoliar USC Information Sciences Institute 4676 Admiralty Way Suite 1001 Marina del Rey, California 90292-6695 Internet: smoliar@vaxa.isi.edu "By long custom, social discourse in Cambridge in intended to impart and only rarely to obtain information.

No one has ever been known to repeat what he or she has heard at a party or other social gathering." John Kenneth Galbraith A TENURED PROFESSOR
