Re:Cannot Open Directory

Hi, I am able to give some more specific information. 1. The problem does not exist when I use XEmacs the regular way. 2. I have VisEmacs.dll ( to open files from MSDEV ) using gnuclient.exe and gnuclientw.exe 3. The gnuserv.el which comes with XEmacs for some reason does not work with gnuclientw.exe gnuclient version: gnuclient 1.7 (27 Feb 1997) I did not get a later build on NT (I could not make it build either from source on NT). 4. I replaced with the latest I got from the net and this works with the gnuclient. 5. When I open a file thru gnuclientw.exe, I can never open a folder (with \\ sep) as mentioned below. I know this may not be the right test scenerio. I was an observation or problem I faced. Does anyone have a later build of gnuclient (or equivalent ) ? with best regards, dhruva ---------------------- Forwarded by Dhruva KRISHNAMURTHY/dassault-systemes on 10/12/2001 02:08 PM --------------------------- Dhruva_KRISHNAMURTHY(a)delmia.com on 10/12/2001 10:28:17 PM To: xemacs-beta(a)xemacs.org cc: (bcc: Dhruva KRISHNAMURTHY/dassault-systemes) Subject: Cannot Open Directory Hi, I am using the latest beta built on my machine, NT SP 4.0 and i589-pc-win32 configuration. XEmacs 21.5 (beta3) "asparagus" [Lucid] (i586-ps-win32, Mule) Problem Description: 1. I type C-xf or M-x find-file 2. Select a directory/folder (not file) 3. It does not open up (nothing happens). 4. I change all back slashes (directory seperator on windows) to forward slash (as in Unix). 5. Things work just fine!! I would like to know why the "*Message*" buffer is absent. I do not get to see any error reporting. I feel we should have "*Message*" buffer or equivalent by default as in Emacs. with best regards, dhruva DELMIA's North American User Group Postponed DELMIA's North American User Group Postponed
