[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

I am frequently receiving the error "Error in menu-bar-update-hook: (error  
Variable binding depth exceeds maximum-specpdl-size"
I am working with Python and running Ubuntu 8.10. The version of emacs is  
GNU Emacs 22.2.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.14.1)
of 2008-09-05 on vernadsky, modified by Ubuntu.

The error occurs when trying to run a shell command of "python <file>" when  
trying to run the code I am working on. It has become so bad that I've had  
to start running the code in a terminal instead of emacs.

Thanks

Matt

Thanks for the report. Your report was against an old version of Emacs,
and the issue you describe could not be reproduced. The latest version
is 23.3. Please open new reports for any issues you have with the new
version.
