So I run a shell in Xemacs. When I attempt to change directories, I use the TAB key to auto-fill the name of the directory. However, the Xemacs shell appends a forward slash ('\') to the end of the directory name instead of a backslash ('/'), essentially behaving as if the shell were a DOS command line instead of a unix environment. So what should look like this: $cd c:/projects/code ends up looking like this: $cd c:\projects\code And, of course, the command doesn't actually execute because its formatted incorrectly.
