With my patch to minibuf.c, we wouldn't need to do that. How is that? But it just feels wrong to apply minibuffer-prompt-properties twice (once in isearch-message-prefix and once in read-from-minibuffer). It does not seem wrong to me. It is unnecessary, so if the message made in isearch-message-prefix were always passed to read-from-minibuffer, it would be silly to do this in isearch-message-prefix. But the fact is that message is sometimes displayed in other ways. So what's wrong with applying the properties there, even if sometimes it is unnecessary? We could also apply all of minibuffer-prompt-properties but only in the case where it will not be passed to read-from-minibuffer. That way it won't ever be done twice. _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
