Guten Tag,
found sth that looks like a bug in abbrev-mode in
(emacs-version) "GNU Emacs 18.57.4 of Thu Apr 16 1992 on hinz (berkeley-unix)"
running on a Sun-Sparc IPC, SunOS 4.1.2.

my-shell-prompt: emacs -q
then execute lisp-expessions (or laod-file with contents:)

(define-abbrev-table 'lisp-mode-abbrev-table '(
    ("abb" "abbrev" nil 0)
    ))
(abbrev-mode 1)


Now insert 'abb', type ESC-' (abbrev-prefix-mark) to mark 'abb' 
as prefix and insert 'mode ' to expand the abbrev.
Screen looks like
>abbrev-mode <
where it should be
>abbrevmode <
(arrows to show spaces). 

It seems to be a screen-updating problem, because a redisplay or 
deletion of characters in front of the minus-sign makes the screen 
show up the correct contents of the buffer.

Best regards 
Ralf
