Emacs : GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.13) of 2014-06-17 on herman Package: Org-mode version 8.2.7c (8.2.7c-dist @ /home/hymie/org-mode/lisp/) Same version with and without -nw. I can't run the newer version of GTK at this time. >FWIW, I cannot reproduce the problem either with -nw or without.

Bummer. >My version info: >GNU Emacs 24.4.50.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.10.9) of >2014-08-18 I'm not a developer by trade, so I'm not sure if I can git the dev versions of emacs. But maybe that will help. --hymie! http://lactose.homelinux.net/~hymie hy...@lactose.homelinux.net
