From: Tom Tromey <tromey <at> redhat.com> To: bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org Subject: bug#4216: 23.1; frame switching -vs- input buffering Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2009 14:58:45 -0600
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 bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org mailing list, and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group. Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug: My standard Emacs setup has two frames side-by-side. I often switch between the frames using `other-frame'. If I am typing quickly, and type the binding for other-frame (here C-z o, but C-x 5 n should work as well) followed immediately by other text, the subsequent text will often go to the previous frame. I expect other-frame to be synchronous in its operation with respect to other typing I do afterward. Currently I have to pause after other-frame, to let Emacs "catch up" and move its focus to the other frame before resuming. If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger, please include the output from the following gdb commands: `bt full' and `xbacktrace'. If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file /usr/share/emacs/23.1/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
