Hello emacs world,
I started using a new windows8 laptop recently.
I'm running emacs 3 different ways:
- emacs directly from windows
- emacs from cygwin
- emacs running on Linux displayed in X running from cygwin
(I'm using Emacs 23.x.x on each).
Each of these 3 ways has bumped me into some annoying emacs behavior
related to pop-up menus.
Important point:
I CAN'T REPRODUCE THE BEHAVIOR AT-WILL BUT I SEE IT FREQUENTLY.
Here is the description:
I am editing some text.
I type ctrl-something-or other.
Usually it works like I expect.
Once in awhile an annoying pop-up menu appears.
Usually the menu shows a list of buffers.
Sometimes I'll see other things in it.
I work-around it easily; I press Esc and it disappears.
This might be related some kind of windows keyboard-mouse "feature".
Also it might be related to accidental brushes of the touch pad.
I see this bad-behavior only on my windows8 laptop.
Perhaps the easiest fix would be to completely disable pop-up windows.
Question: How do I completely disable pop-up windows?
