We are running UniPress version #264 Emacs on 4.1bsd. We have a problem that messages displayed with "message" disappear after a few seconds. Has anyone else had this problem?

Spencer Thomas fixed that one a while ago. Here's the fix: in
window.c, right after the line that says AllUpdates++, add the
following lines:
/* If the minibuffer got wiped, but should be re-displayed, restore it */
if (MiniBuf && !GSaveMiniBuf && !*MiniBuf && ResetMiniBuf) {
MiniBuf = ResetMiniBuf;
if (*ResetMiniBuf == 0)
ResetMiniBuf = 0;
}

From: thomas%utah-gr@utah-cs (Spencer W. Thomas) If you are running the "time" daemon, this is the cause. I have fixed the input routine so it only wipes out the minibuffer display on keyboard input. Requires changes to a couple of places (minibuf.c and mchan.c?). =S

Jerry, This sounds like either your VT100 (C. Itoh) terminal or your Sytek network is sending a CTRL-Q. If this is bound to (novalue) then nothing will happen except that the message will disappear. -- Art Z.
