I believe there is a regression, but possibly intentional, caused by this patch:
https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/commit/203e61ff837128b397eb313a5bb1b703f0eae0ecThis affects minibuffers created when (kbd-macro-query t) is called as
part of the hook that runs when the (read-from-minibuffer) function is
called. You get the error message "Not in most nested command loop". For
example, this code here:
https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/KeyboardMacros#h5o-5Or, pasting the code in question:
(defun my-macro-query (arg)
"Prompt for input using minibuffer during kbd macro execution.
With prefix argument, allows you to select what prompt string to use.
If the input is non-empty, it is inserted at point."
(interactive "P")
(let* ((prompt (if arg (read-from-minibuffer "PROMPT: ") "Input: "))
(input (minibuffer-with-setup-hook (lambda () (kbd-macro-query t))
(read-from-minibuffer prompt))))
(unless (string= "" input) (insert input))))
(global-set-key (kbd "C-x Q") 'my-macro-query)
If you attempt to start a keyboard macro via F3, then attempt to read a
minibuffer with the above code via C-x Q, upon pressing ENTER to close
the minibuffer, you get the following error message:
"Not in most nested command loop"
You won't be able to close out the minibuffer, the only way I found to
proceed was to C-] or multiple escapes, which canceled the keyboard
macro creation. As a result, it appears we can't use the above method to
read and set variables during keyboard macro creation. I'm not sure if
this is intentional or not, or if there's a replacement for the above or
not. But it appears to be a regression from before that series of patches.
