One of the people I work with has isolated a set of steps to reproduce this
problem at will.
If you do the following sequence of actions:
- start epoch and an hpterm window from your node
- bring up an epoch buffer, e.g. /tmp/tryIt
- cut any text from the created hpterm window
(using the left mouse button)
- paste the text into the created epoch buffer
(using the middle mouse button)
- type M-x save-buffer-kill-buffer in the epoch buffer
- wait approximately 15 minutes
Then the hpterm window you created will disappear.
This link between epoch and hpterms is not proven, but I have been able
to make this scenario happen without fail so far.
While you wait this 15 minutes, you cannot left-button click in an any
other epoch window, as this has the effect of re-initializing the cut buffer.
