speaking as an acme user, the behaviour is somewhat
desirable. it's one of a myriad tweaks which mitigate the
discomfort caused by acme's window system design.
as might be obvious from my tone, i'm only using acme
until i can find or (preferably) write another editor i can
tolerate. still, if anyone is in the mood for fixing acme,
there's also something wrong with the X command.
(probably Y too.)
someone, in some mailing list, (i'm very sorry for the
vagueness,) writing about acme on inferno,
found a variable pertaining to the X command
could be used uninitialized. i took notice because
i've developed a certain amount of fear of using the
X command in acme on 9front. strange things may
happen during or after using it, including sudden exits
and freezes without any apparent cause.
again, i'm sorry for the vagueness. i didn't save the
inferno mail because i was going through a hard time,
and i don't want to look at acme's source because i'm
still struggling with my code-reading skills.
