Re: Status of my GTK efforts.

[Richard Stallman]

    I'm no expert on XIM, but GDK does a lot of that internally.  It sets its 
own
    InstantiateCallback, I am not sure how this would interract with Emacs XIM
    handling.

Could you please investigate this enough so that you can tell me
whether there is a shortcoming in GTK or GDK in this area?

    When GTK gets an Enter notify event, it peeks at the next event and if 
there is
    one and it is a Leave notify, it throws those two events away.  The same is
    done if first a Leave notify event is followed by an Enter notify. As this 
is
    done in GTK, only GTK widgets should be affected.

Does this cause a problem for Emacs?  Should I ask the GTK developers
to add a way to turn this off?
