What were you trying to do?
read discuss in emacs, recover succesfully from hitting
'n' at the last x-action of a meeting
What's wrong:
I was reading:
charon.MIT.EDU:/usr/spool/discuss/linux-dev
the last x-action was 469
when I hit 'n' I get:
Invalid read syntax: ". in wrong context"
I've done this 3 times in a row now
Note that unless I do M-x discuss-restart right away there's
at least a 50% chance that emacs will start "waiting for discuss"
and not come back.
What should have happened:
I should have gotten the message no next transaction.
