Emacs-18.57 on Sequent Symmetry S81 running DYNIX V3.0.17.10
I've built emacs-18.57 on our Sequent, but have noticed a couple
of odd things which never occurred before when running under X11r4
(with all 18 patches applied, I think). Does anyone know a work
around? I'd prefer to patch it up before it's installed.
1. I use the twm window manager under which you can specify
"WarpCursor" which means that when a window is deiconified, the mouse
pointer is automatically moved into the deiconified window. When I
do this with emacs-18.57, the cursor no longer goes to inverse video,
even if I go out of the window and back again. It's a pain sometimes
just to see where the cursor is...
2. If you resize an emacs window, the buffers are not refreshed,
so everything becomes blank. To get it refreshed you have to do
something (or wait for the clock to update!) in the window.
Does anyone out there know what's going wrong? Also, can anyone
tell me how to cut & paste using emacs? I can't find anything in the
*info* section.
I'll post & summarise answers I get, I'd prefer responses by
email.
Thanks, Simon.
