I found a strange behaviour which might be a bug, but maybe of my
configuration.

This is org mode version:
Org-mode version 7.4 (release_7.4.199.g8be1.dirty)
and emacs:
"GNU Emacs 23.2.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin10.3.0, NS apple-appkit-1038.29)
 of 2010-05-09 on linc"

To reproduce the bug I do
- go over an elisp code block
- C-c ' to edit in the overlay
- C-c ' to go back when done

And it works perfectly, BUT if for example I remove a parenthesis before
pressing C-c ', I can't go back.

C-c ' becomes undefined and I have to kill both the overlay and the
original buffer.

While I was writing I also found the cause of the problem, Paredit!
Removing the hook from emacs-lisp-mode-hook fixes this, but paredit is
really useful with elisp, maybe someone has an idea of why this happens?

I can reproduce this. emacs 23.1 and org 7.4

Good that I'm not alone :)
Another thing is that also changing mode in the overlay messes things
up, but that's not an orgmode fault I think, it's just how they work...

Hi Andrea,

So it looks like paredit-mode refuses to start up (throws an error) if
the parentheses are unbalanced. So how about we use

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(add-hook 'emacs-lisp-mode-hook
          (lambda ()
            (condition-case nil
                (paredit-mode)
              (error (message "Failed to activate paredit mode")))))
#+end_src

At the moment this message gets stamped on by a message which
org-edit-src always issues in the echo-area. I'm going to submit a patch
to control that in a subsequent email.

Oh no. You got me editing elisp with paredit mode turned on. Maybe it
will last more than 5 minutes this time :)

Dan

When using C-c ', currently we can turn off the persistent message at
the top of the screen by setting `org-edit-src-persistent-message' to
nil, but we can't prevent the echo-area message without more code. The
echo area message may be useful for new users, but for experienced users
it is unnecessary and risks obscuring more useful messages.

This patch provides control over both messages. The relevant
customizable variable has a different name: `org-edit-src-messages'.

Hi Dan,

maybe just header in the default value to keep the echo area open for  
error messages?

Cheers

Absolutely. But if you prefer, we could just do away with the echo-area
message entirely. That would have the advantage of leaving the user
interface unchanged.

With the default as '(header), my UI change only makes sense if we
believe that an appreciable number of users will disable the header
message and activate the echo-area message in its place.

There are people who hate the header line IIRC.  But I guess you are  
right - once people are ready to remove the header line for this  
application, they will probably have memorized it.

I remember that I started with the echo area and introduced the header  
line because people were asking how to get out of there, so I needed  
something more persistent.

So I guess if the header line is the default, I'd be fine with  
removing the echo area message altogether.

I have done that, and removed my other patch from patchwork.
