Currently, just a comment in `timer-event-handler' says this. I would have appreciated to read this in a doc-string with an explanation of what "real time jumps" means and how often the timer repeats. > Emacs was suspended.

I verfied this with some trivial code that increments a counter. AFAICT, the timer always repeats eight times. _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
