Hi Makarius, 

Thank you for the pointers.  

I did not publish my reasons for still using Proof General because in such cases my reasons 
are typically not very useful.  But I'll give it a try: Proof General is a silent 
proof partner who gives me a lot of space. By contrast, Isabelle/jEdit seems like a 
corridor full of smart people who keep offering to help me. I prefer to do proofs with my office 
door closed.  

Andrei

In Isabelle/01637dd1260c + AFP/12b00c2f46bf we are back to normal, which 
means that HyperCTL is still not terminating.

So I have added this:

tighter timeout, to avoid burning test cycles with this non-terminating 
entry;


Once you are finished with it, you need to reset the timeout to something 
reasonable: 600 is a common default.


Here is also the relevant part of isabelle/README_REPOSITORY:

     cd isabelle

     hg pull -u

     ./bin/isabelle components -a

     ./bin/isabelle jedit -l HOL


Isabelle/jEdit is particularly useful for such maintenance tasks.  If you 
are still using Proof General, you should indeed be ashamed that you did 
not publish your list of remaining reasons for that.  (That thread is 
still open.)
