Hi list, When Emacs reads input in the minibuffer (i.e., with `read-from-minibuffer` or `completing-read`, etc.) and you click some other window with the mouse, that window is selected, but the minibuffer input isn't cancelled. Is there a way to automatically cancel the minibuffer input when clicking another window? I've been trying with `mouse-leave-buffer-hook` and by adding advice before `mouse-set-point`, with various functions (`keyboard-quit`, `minibuffer-keyboard-quit`, `abort-minibuffers`, `abort-recursive-edit`), but either nothing happens, or I get an error "not in a minibuffer"...
