Subject: bug#5247: 23.1; Cursor disappearing when in reverse video
Date: Sat, 19 Dec 2009 02:46:12 -0500
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:




When starting Emacs in reverse video, either by command line 
(--reverse-video) or by registry value ('true' in 
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\GNU\Emacs\emacs.reverseVideo), 
the cursor disappears when going to the upper or lower 
border of a buffer.

I tested this just by starting Emacs with --reverse-video, 
no init file, switching to *scratch* and moving down the cursor.

Emacs version: the latest version for Windows, just 
downloaded from
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/emacs-23.1-bin-i386.zip

Windows version: XP Professional Version 2002 SP3.

Thank you guys!
Luca

PS: Note that my previous version of Emacs [22.3.1 
(i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2008-09-06 on SOFT-MJASON] did 
not have this problem.




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
c:/Program Files/Emacs23.1/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
