It complicates the code, I just recently fixed in bug there, that's how
I run into this.

You can take --daemon out of this equation, you'd  get the same when
doing 
emacs -Q and emacs -Q -nw

bug#2135: 23.0.60; Rmail's `g' command marks old messages ``unseen''

I think this means that the right place to set the "unseen" attribute
is when _creating_ the header field that records the attributes.

bug#1854: 23.0.60; Gnus opens browser tab twice

Hallöchen!

This problem vanished somehow yesterday.  I checked the logfile of
my package manager but I could found any automatic update which
could be responsible for it (unless it was libc, gcc, or ldap, which
is hardly the case).  Additionally, I haven't installed a new CVS
Emacs.

So unfortunately, I can't tell you what is responsible.  I can only
say the e.g. my instant messager never exhibited this behaviour, it
was only Emacs.  I'm ready for answering any questions nevertheless
of course.

Tschö,
Torsten.

bug#2134: [PATCH] progmodes/compile.el: check global-font-lock-mode

The buffer handling could be improved to work without font lock. In some
cases the colors distract reading; thus font-lock is turned offm, but
RET no longer intreprets the line.

SUGGESTION

There could be be alternative handler to read the current line and
respond to RET (etc.) when font-lock is turned off. I'm supposing here
that standard grep syntax would be easy to handle:

   default-directory: DIR

   FILE:LINE:MATCH

I should have been more explicit about the point of this bug report,
which is this: when I invoke `emacsclient -c' under X11, I expect the
usual behavior under X11, but in the above case, --daemon apparently

bug#1988: Making the license statement visible in the Emacs Manual

Jesse,

    Simply adding  <at> insertcopying seems best to me, but any of the 
    alternatives are fine.  If it would help, I'd be happy to make patches 
    for the various manuals.

Since evidently no one else has a strong opinion, I suggest we go with
the plain  <at> insertcopying.  It would be great if you could prepare the
patches.  Thanks.
