--- Begin Message ---Subject: 23.4; Cursor jumps around while typing This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation, Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2013 10:58:47 -0700
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Your report will be posted to the address@hidden mailing list
and the gnu.emacs.bug news group, and at http://debbugs.gnu.org.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug. If you can, give
a recipe starting from `emacs -Q':
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am currently trying to disable "Smart Tabs" for Python.
I start with:
emacs -nw ~/aoeu.py
Right off the bat, if I try to type
def hello, world!
I get the following:
deo h!ll , world
with the initial "de" highlighted in Cyan, "o h" and "ll" in blue, and the rest in grey.
If I then type "M-x whitespace-mode", the text *sometimes* reappears as normal text.
Also, if I try to open a file, and type "C-x C-f" and then "~/.git[TAB]" (or something similar), the tab completion jumps back over the text--indeed, if I repeatedly backspace, I'll even backspace over the highlighed status line.
I *don't* think it's a problem with "python-mode", because I have had this problem before, when trying to edit "~/.gitconfig". Since I was working with a lot of colors, I suspected that the problem involved funny escape characters. Here is the portion of the Git configuration file:
=================
[alias]
tree = log --pretty=format:'%C(red reverse)%h%Creset %C(yellow)%d%Creset %C(blue bold)<%cn>%Creset %Cgreen%cd %Creset%s' --date=short --graph
lg = log --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset %ad %s %C(yellow)%d%Creset %C(bold blue)<%an>%Creset' --date=short
hist = log --graph --full-history --all --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset %ad %s %C(yellow)%d%Creset %C(bold blue)<%an>%Creset' --date=short
graph = log --graph --color --all --pretty=format:"%C(yellow)%H%C(green)%d%C(reset)%n%x20%cd%n%x20%cn%x20(%ce)%n%x20%s%n"
lol = log --graph --decorate --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit
lola = log --graph --decorate --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit --all
ln = log --oneline --graph --decorate --all
mytree log --graph --full-history --all --color --pretty=format:"%x1b[31m%h%x09%x1b[32m%d%x1b[0m%x20%s"
=================
Unfortunately, because I deleted the line that seemed to be causing the problem, this *isn't* the original section of the file; I *hope* that the alias "mytree" is like the line that was causing the problem, but I cannot be sure--thus, this example might be completely useless for debugging purposes.
If I start with "emacs -nw -Q ~/aoeu.py", the problem doesn't seem to exist at all.
Also, if I comment out (column-number-mode 1) in my init.el file, the problem also doesn't see\
m to exist.
My ".emacs.d/init.el" file is as follows:
==================
;;;; A few basic variables that I like to have set up...
(desktop-save-mode 1)
(show-paren-mode 1)
(column-number-mode 1)
(setq make-backup-files nil)
;;;; Include files; we add "~/.emacs.d/elisp/[. smarttabs]"
(let ((default-directory "~/.emacs.d/elisp"))
(normal-top-level-add-to-load-path '("."))
(normal-top-level-add-to-load-path '("smarttabs")))
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
;;;; Smart Tabs Mode and hooks; useful for using tabs to show
;;;; indentation, and spaces for showing alignment.
(setq-default tab-width 3)
(setq indent-tabs-mode nil)
(autoload 'smart-tabs-mode "smart-tabs-mode"
"Intelligently indent with tabs, align with spaces!")
(autoload 'smart-tabs-mode-enable "smart-tabs-mode")
(autoload 'smart-tabs-advice "smart-tabs-mode")
;; Python
(add-hook 'python-mode-hook
(lambda ()
(setq indent-tabs-mode t)
(setq tab-width (default-value 'tab-width))
(setq smart-tabs-mode t)))
(smart-tabs-advice python-indent-line-1 python-indent)
;; Lisp
==================
Of course, I have reason to believe that the problem is somewhere in column-number-mode, so I'll be turning off this mode, so that I could just get back to work. Since the cursor jumps back and forth in this bug, however, I wouldn't be surprised if it's a combination of column-number-mode and show-paren-mode--but that's just speculation on my part.
Also, I use the Smart Tabs mode made available on the Wiki: https://github.com/jcsalomon/smarttabs.git
While I can't be certain, I don't *think* that Smart Tabs is part of the bug, because I can comment out Smart Tabs in init.el, and the problem remains.
