Is it possible to have the centering behavior of the *goals* window be configurable? I see from ticket #111 that the behavior was changed recently to center on the bottom of the goal instead of the top of the hypotheses, but unfortunately a lot of things I prove end up with 50 line goals, so the old behavior (while sometimes not ideal) is still better for me.

I'm going through the "walkthrough example in Isabelle/Isar?" in section 2.1 of the user manual. When I come to the bit about backing up with C-c C-BS, emacs gives the error "wrong type argument: listp, #<overlay from 74 to 92 in Walkthrough.thy>". The same happens if I choose Undo Step or Delete Step from the menu.

Playing around further, if I get to the line "then obtain B and A .." and then press C-c C-RET, I get a similar error "error in process filter: Wrong type argument: listp #<overlay..>". After this, if I try to choose "Restart Scripting" from the menu, emacs hangs.

I tried this with both ProofGeneral 3.6 and 3.7 and Isabelle2005 under emacs 21.4.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Certain complex response from the prover (Isabelle2007) can make font-lock crash when processing the output for display in *response* buffer. The included file "bad.output" has been fetched from the *isabelle* buffer in the critical situation. It can be replayed by starting a fresh Isabelle2007 / Proof General session on Cygwin and issuing the following Isar command:

ML {* Output.std_output (File.read (Path.explode "bad.output")) *}

This will result in tons of messages like this:

(1) (error/warning) Error in process filter: (args-out-of-range *response* 330313 345908)

(2) (error/warning) Error in process filter: (args-out-of-range *response* 314717 330312)

(3) (error/warning) Error in process filter: (args-out-of-range *response* 299121 314716)

(4) (error/warning) Error in process filter: (args-out-of-range *response* 283525 299120)

The problem seems to be specific to Cygwin or the particular XEmacs 21.4.20 installation of that distribution. It works fine on various Linux installations of with XEmacs 21.4.21/22.
