bug#4873: 23.1.50; Some unexpected behaviour during dired confirmation p


From: Tim Van Holder
Subject: bug#4873: 23.1.50; Some unexpected behaviour during dired confirmation prompt
Date: Thu, 05 Nov 2009 11:09:37 +0100

Given a dired session in a directory containing files 'a' and 'b':
- put cursor on 'a' and press R (rename)
- enter 'b' as new name

Result: dired prompts with "Overwrite 'b'? [Type yn!q or C-h]".

Unexpected behaviour at this point:
- C-g does not work (only 'q' cancels)
- toolbar goes blank (with a minor frame resize as a result); given that
  C-h is allowed, maybe the 'help' icon could be left active?
- Pressing a key other than those listed results in
    "Invalid key - type  for help."
  (i.e. the character for ^H (0x08) is shown instead of "C-h")

In GNU Emacs 23.1.50.2 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.8.20)
