I have no idea whether this means that the 'split-window' call was wrapped in a condition-case and if so why you get the errors then. Does the failure happen when you are in the *scratch* buffer and do M-x list-timers? Can you try to edebug 'split-window' and get a backtrace before it throws an error? > Yes, I type "SPC" to temporarily enable the command. So the *Disabled Command* window pops up, you type SPC, the *Disabled Command* window disappears and then the errors above are thrown? Is that what you see? If you make an exact copy of 'list-timers', call it 'my-list-timers' and invoke it via M-x my-list-timers: Does it throw the same errors? martin From debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Wed Dec 19 19:51:42 2018 Received: (at control) by debbugs.gnu.org; 20 Dec 2018 00:51:42 +0000 Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1]:55316 helo=debbugs.gnu.org) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.84_2) (envelope-from ) id 1gZmYv-0001Em-W1 for submit@debbugs.gnu.org; Wed, 19 Dec 2018 19:51:42 -0500 Received: from eggs.gnu.org ([208.118.235.92]:51714) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.84_2) (envelope-from ) id 1gZmYu-0001EY-M1 for control@debbugs.gnu.org; Wed, 19 Dec 2018 19:51:40 -0500 Received: from Debian-exim by eggs.gnu.org with spam-scanned (Exim 4.71) (envelope-from ) id 1gZmYo-0002ch-2r for control@debbugs.gnu.org; Wed, 19 Dec 2018 19:51:34 -0500 X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.3.2 (2011-06-06) on eggs.gnu.org X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-1.9 required=5.0 tests=BAYES_00 autolearn=disabled version=3.3.2 Received: from fencepost.gnu.org ([2001:4830:134:3::e]:50156) by eggs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.71) (envelope-from ) id 1gZmYl-0002XX-9n for control@debbugs.gnu.org; Wed, 19 Dec 2018 19:51:33 -0500 Received: from rgm by fencepost.gnu.org with local (Exim 4.82) (envelope-from ) id 1gZmYh-0003PG-0Q for control@debbugs.gnu.org; Wed, 19 Dec 2018 19:51:29 -0500 Subject: control message for bug 33417 To: X-Mailer: mail (GNU Mailutils 2.99.98) Message-Id: From: Glenn Morris Date: Wed, 19 Dec 2018 19:51:27 -0500 X-detected-operating-system: by eggs.gnu.org: GNU/Linux 2.2.x-3.x [generic] X-Received-From: 2001:4830:134:3::e X-Spam-Score: -5.0 (-----) X-Debbugs-Envelope-To: control X-BeenThere: debbugs-submit@debbugs.gnu.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.18 Precedence: list List-Id: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Errors-To: debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Sender: "Debbugs-submit" X-Spam-Score: -6.0 (------) tag 33417 + wontfix close 33417
