Dear Bug Team!
Further to my previous bug-report concerning
XEmacs 21.4.13 "Rational FORTRAN" configured for `i586-pc-win32'.
File mode specification error: (file-error "Searching for program"
"No such file or directory" "find")
I have found the problem. For some reason (I suspect an SSH
installation), my machine had both a User variable Path as well as a
System variable names Path. The problem went away as soon as I removed
the "User variable Path" (after adding its entries to the "System
variable Path" beforehand).
The problem did in fact also show up in the MS-Command Prompt (DOS
shell) as it could not find "find.exe". This might be a fast way of
diagnosis in case it should turn up with someone else. It is remarkable
that the XEmacs error-message was in fact quite accurate - it did not
find "find".
Cheers,
Norbert.
