Qt-TeXmacs - exec_delayed broken

[Norbert Nemec]

Hi Max,

it seems that the exec_delayed implementation in Qt/TeXmacs is seriously
broken. The old version mixed up the order, and the latest patch that
tries to correct this somehow does not work either. Actually, I don't
even understand how the latest version is supposed to work.

A quick-and-dirty workaround is to comment out exec_delayed&Co in
qt_gui.cpp, reactivate it in Guile/Scheme/object.cpp and reintroduce the
call to exec_pending_commands in tm_server.cpp. This seems to solve all
my problems at once...

Greetings,
Norbert

Unfortunately on my Mac my patch worked (and also on a Linux machine I  
cannot reproduce your observations) so I cannot really understand what  
is going wrong. I just commited a further patch which reimplements all  
the delayed messages handling using a unique timer so that commands  
should be sequenced like in the X11 version. Please check that the bug  
is gone or try to provide me some protocol to reproduce it (even if  
not deterministically).

Thanks for you help.

Best
Max

The problems have changed, but it is still not working properly. I
experience strange delays on some commands and a crash when closing the
program.

Don't worry about it for the moment. I will look into it myself as soon
as I find some more time.

Greetings,
Norbert
