After setting the default cursor type to something other than the default block cursor:
(setq default-cursor-type 'bar) and using a function that internally sets the variable `cursor-in-echo-area' to non-nil, e.g.: (y-or-n-p "prompt: ") or `C-h k' the specified cursor type is ignored and the minibuffer in all these cases displays the block cursor. This is not a critical bug, but it would be nice to fix this if possible. Also the prompt of key-reading commands (like `C-h k') is not highlighted using the `minibuffer-prompt' face. This could be fixed as well. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/ _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
