Alright, I finally traced it back to something not ERC-related. The
easiest way I could reproduce it is with some code to highlight
parentheses. So here's a simple recipe:
- Get http://pastebin.com/UafFZ9qy and put it in your load path (I got
this code from emacswiki some time ago, it worked fine until today -
which doesn't mean it's correct, maybe your changes simply exposed a
bug in it)
- Put
(require 'highlight-parentheses)
(global-highlight-parentheses-mode t)
(ido-mode 1)
(icomplete-mode 1)
in a blank .emacs
- M-x a, observe there's a nice completion list
- C-g to get out of the completion
- M-x a, observe the completion list has disappeared (for the rest
of the session)
This started occuring at some point today and the code uses
post-command-hook, so it's probably related.
Hope that helps
Antoine
