- Guten Tag,
- found sth that looks like a bug in abbrev-mode in
- (emacs-version) "GNU Emacs 18.57.4 of Thu Apr 16 1992 on hinz (berkeley-unix)"
- running on a Sun-Sparc IPC, SunOS 4.1.2.
-
- my-shell-prompt: emacs -q
- then execute lisp-expessions (or laod-file with contents:)
-
- (define-abbrev-table 'lisp-mode-abbrev-table '(
- ("abb" "abbrev" nil 0)
- ))
- (abbrev-mode 1)
-
-
- Now insert 'abb', type ESC-' (abbrev-prefix-mark) to mark 'abb'
- as prefix and insert 'mode ' to expand the abbrev.
- Screen looks like
- >abbrev-mode <
- where it should be
- >abbrevmode <
- (arrows to show spaces).
-
- It seems to be a screen-updating problem, because a redisplay or
- deletion of characters in front of the minus-sign makes the screen
- show up the correct contents of the buffer.
-
- Best regards
- Ralf
