What were you trying to do?
Kill a buffer..
I was in mh-rmail, hit a to reply to a letter. Then resized
emacs right after I hit enter at the Reply-To: prompt. Then
emacs did started to flash. (I have visual bell set).
What's wrong:
Emacs decided there was an error. Then it got into an infinite
loop of errors and my emacs turned into a strobe light source.
What should have happened:
It should have killed the buffer...
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
