Looking further, there are a couple circumstances where it won't reproduce: • There needs to be newlines after the message call to reproduce • eval-last-sexp needs to be invoked through a local keymap
Let ~/emacs-local-key.el contain: (local-set-key (kbd "<f5>") 'eval-last-sexp) Or you can do so in an emacs-lisp-mode-hook.
Steps: • Run: ./src/emacs -Q --load ~/emacs-local-key.el
• C-x 3 • M-x buffer-menu • Select *Messages* (now left window is *Messages* right is *scratch*) • C-x o • Input: (message "a") • Enter a couple times so as there are new lines after the message call
• Move point to after the close paren above • Use f5 to eval-last-sexp, no change in *Messages* • C-x o • Now all the "a" messages appear
I tried sizing the window to the left and to the right, still can reproduce.
