Hi folks. I'm running epoch-4.0.1 (X11R5.11), on Sequent Symmetry
S81 running DYNIX V3.0.17.10. I notice that if I do Shift-Button1
(which tells me the line the pointer is on) in a part of the window that
is beyond the end of the window's contents, I get the error:
Args out of range: x, y
Where y is the value (1+ (point)), ie. it seems that epoch adds 1 to
(point) underneath the pointer, then checks the line count in that
region, regardless as to whether (point) == (point-max) in the first
place.
This also occasionally happens when the buffer is narrowed, and the
pointer is beyond the end of the narrowed region, as in rmail. This is
a pain here, because I often cut from the rmail window; and then get
this type of error if the area I am cutting extends to the end of the
(narrowed) buffer.
Cheers, Simon.
