I am running emacs version 18.55 on an hp9000 800 series with HPUX 7.0. Occasionally (a couple of times a week) I find that one of the function keys which I have mapped via the function-keymap stops working. In fact, the entry in function-keymap has been clobbered. This is what the keymap looks like after the glitch: function-keymap's value is (keymap (104 . move-to-window-line) (101 . open-line) (2 . end-of-line) (1 . beginning-of-line) (102 . re-search-forward) (107 . kill-region) (115 . set-mark-command) (63 . help-for-help) (67 . recenter) (80 . scroll-down) (78 . scroll-up) (68 . delete-char) (45 . compare-windows) (46 . "") (48 . overwrite-mode) (53 . "o") (50 . next-line) (54 . "") (52 . "") (56 . previous-line) (51 . "") (57 . "v") (49 . ">") (55 . #<EMACS BUG: ILLEGAL DATATYPE (#o37777777743) Save your buffers immediately and please report this bug>) (100 . next-line) (114 . "") (108 . "") (117 . previous-line) (3 . new-shell) (4 . kill-whole-line)) Note that different entries get clobbered each time. I have not found a way to consistently reproduce this bug, but it happens several times a week. If I remap the affected entry, everything works fine again. Thanks... Dave Brand db@jyacc.com
