It's been quite clearly wrong _every_ time it's happened to me -- and it happens often enough that I've stopped using `q' in help buffers because I'm afraid of it... It's also quite inconsistent with the `traditional' quit commands in emacs modes, which almost always simply bury the buffer (or do something equivalent, like deleting it entirely). If this behavior is intended to address the case of quitting from a buffer where a new frame is created to display that buffer, it seems to make a lot more sense to record the fact that the frame was created for that purpose, and have view-mode check for that specific case. Absent such positive indication, view-mode should be conservative and not go around iconifying stuff. If such a change is deemed too much, my personal experience is that view-mode currently gets it wrong far more often than it gets it right, and so this iconifying behavior should simply be disabled until after the release. -Miles -- Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball. _______________________________________________ Emacs-pretest-bug mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
