Hi Devon, I believe you already submitted a patch for clover‐alt‐H a
while back, and it was committed. I think you must be running a
slightly out of date build.

I’m unsure about some of the changes you’re making in this patch. Are
you rearranging some of the lines? I think that’s generally frowned
upon as it makes tracking changes harder.

If you could redo your changes against a more up to date copy of
ns-win.el, I’ll be happy to commit it.

I’m not sure how to fix this either. I’ll have to have a dig around.
