[Message part 2 (message/rfc822, inline)]
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug <at> gnu.org mailing
list.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
Slightly complicated macros are lost if you try to edit them. To trigger
this
bug:
Start Emacs: 'emacs -Q'
Start macro recording 'C-x ('
Type: "This is<return>abc<up><end-of-line> a Test<down><return>"
End macro recording: 'C-x )'
You may check that the macro was recorded correctly (not necessary to
trigger the bug) 'F4'
Edit the macro 'C-x C-k C-e'
Change the 'is' to 'was'
Finish the editing 'C-c C-c'
'F4' or 'C-x C-k C-e' shows that the macro has lost most of its content,
it only contains
"<up><down>RET"
If you omit the unnecessary cursor movements from the macro above, it
doesn't show this error
Regards
Heinz
