I was trying this out, and it seems like the set-mouse-position function in ntemacs 19.31.1 is broken. It sets the position relative to where the window was when it was first opened (or perhaps always relative to the upper left corner. If the emacs window has been moved, the function puts the mouse pointer in the wrong place. -- / Christopher Masto \ / Superior Net Services \ / Your vote counts \ | exidor@superior.net | | $24.95/month unlimited use | | Support free speech | \ Programmer/Tech / \ http://www.superior.net/ / \ HappyNet for all /
