Hi, 
from time to time I read about a bug in epoch which is referred to 
as 'Infinite beep mode': A message 'Marker does not point anywhere' is
displayed in the minibuffer, and the bell is rung forever. 

This bug happens quite often with Epoch 4.2.1 on a DECstation 
(Ultrix 4.2A and X11R5). I can stop this 'mode' only by killing Epoch.
My questions: What is the state of the discussion and is there a bug fix 
available?

Any help appreciated

Thanks
