Problem: exwm choking on Transients with Unbound suffix I have been gradually experimenting with replacing my hydras with Transients1, partly as a proof of concept. I have a show-stopping issue2 when I sometimes end up invoking the Transients from an EXWM window, however. The Transient pops up, but no key I press is then sent to the Transient and I end up trapped in a loop: Transient is expecting a key, which needs to be passed by EXWM, but EXWM can’t pass the right keys because Transient is intercepting them3.

I build hydras for common functions in my use-pattern; sometimes it’s the C-u version that I want in my hydra. Usually this is easily done by passing a '(4) to the function. However, I have one fn that is failing at this: ("<f11>" (lambda () (interactive) (flyspell-correct-wrapper '(4))) "spell correct") ;; eval: Wrong number of arguments: (0 . 0), 1 The reason for this failure is that it turns out emacs has two ways of calling fns with prefix args.
