After installing official patch 2 for epoch I noticed two peculiarities.
1. When I drag a region with the mouse (left mouse down) the
buffer-modified indicator in the mode line ("%*" in
mode-line-format) flickers between "-" and "*".
There doesn't seem to be any adverse effect.
2. When I run (split-window-vertically) sometimes the first character of
the top mode-line is not displayed in reverse-video.
Then, after I run (delete-other-windows), sometimes one stray
character in the buffer is displayed in reverse video. It goes away
if I run (redraw-display).
This is on a Sun Sparc 2 (SunOS 4.1.1, X11R4, twm).
These are insignificant quirks and patch 2 is much appreciated.
I do wish however that the basic-mouse patch from Kenneth C. Laprade
(laprade@trantor.harris-atd.com) had been included. I find it useful to
be able to paste into the minibuffer with the mouse.
