It now appears as though any re-shape command, invoked from righ-buttoning the title bar of the main Dedit window, will leave the tty with the Mouse process.  This must be a bug.'
'
Mousing in the Exec window will return control to DEdit, but one would expect that mousing in *any* DEdit-owned window (e.g., the main editor window) should return control.'

I''ve found with the latest FULL.sysout that the problem of the mouse process getting the TTY after running DEdit is still with us. I recall a conjecture that it only happened when you reshaped the window... is that possible?'
'
(after all, if DEdit has a reshapefn that somehow grabs the TTY to This.process, that would be wrong, wouldn''t it!)'

Indeed, reshaping a Dedit window gives the mouse''s process to the window''s PROCESS prop.  The culprit is ACTIVEEDITW in SETDEDITMAP in DEDITRESHAPEFN.'

Yes - it''s a known DEdit bug and I havent patched it, so it''s not surprising its still in the current full. (I do have a diagnosis).'
