Package: emacs,w32
(Filing a report for old item from FOR-RELEASE.)
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2006-08/msg00439.html
Initial report (todo: verify new font backend eliminates this and other
Cleartype related problems):
1. emacs -Q
2. Load this file: http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/mouse%2b.el
3. Customize this face to have a red foreground:
`mouse-flash-position'. (The default, yellow, is not very visible
against an emacs -Q background.)
4. M-: (global-set-key [down-mouse-2] 'mouse-flash-position)
5. Select some text (e.g. a word), for yanking elsewhere.
6. Put the mouse on some line of text. Press `mouse-2' and hold it
pressed. Move the mouse along the text without releasing the button.
Release it to finish the yank.
When you press `mouse-2', the yank position is highlighted. When you
move the mouse, the highlight moves with the mouse. But vestigial
overlay traces are left behind.
