[bam@snoopy.apana.org.au: xemacs20-bin: Error when pointing to button]

[Brian May <bam@snoopy.apana.org.au>]

Hello,

I sent this bug report on xemacs a while ago (bug #37027), but the
the maintainer (assuming James LewisMoss is the maintainer) was unable
to assist.

This problem is driving me crazy, and I tend to expect more from xemacs...

so... the next question should be obvious... does anyone have any
other suggestions?

The entire thread can be found on BTS. Possibly of importance,
James told me:
>Go to the menu Options -> General Options and choose Debug On Error
>and cause the error again.  You should get a more complex error
>message.  Can you please send that message to me?

and I responded:
Signaling: (error "Can't instantiate image (probably cached)" [xbm :mask-fi=
le "/usr/include/X11/bitmaps/left_ptrmsk" :mask-data (16 16 "^L

Thanks in advance,

(BTW, this isn't meant to criticize James LewisMoss efforts in anyway.
I have forwarded a copy of this mail to him in case he has any new ideas.)

When I point to a button (eg open) I get the following error:

Can't instatiate image (probably cached): [xmb :mask-file
"/usr/include/X11/bitmaps/left_ptrmsk" :mask-data ( 16 16 "removed")
:hotspot-y 1 :hotspot-x 3 :file "/usr/include/X11/bitmaps/left_ptr" :data
(16 16 "removed") ]

Where I replaced the binary data with removed.

I only just started using xemacs, so I have do idea what this error means. Both
files in question are accessible and look valid to me.

/usr/include/X11/bitmaps/left_ptrmsk:
#define left_ptrmsk_width 16
#define left_ptrmsk_height 16
static char left_ptrmsk_bits[] = {

   0xcc, 0x03, 0x80, 0x07, 0x80, 0x07, 0x00, 0x03};
