Brian Lasher writes: As somebody else suggested, "Windwos" is a misspelling of the usual location. Is that really where your cmd.exe is installed? At this point we have no reports that Windows Vista is any different from any preceding version of Windows in any important respect. With all due respect, that suggests that you have a local configuration problem, and that your best bet is to find somebody who knows something about Windows setup who can take a look at your configuration. We can try to debug remotely, but all our Windows- based developers seem to be busy with day job or something. You might also try posting to the comp.emacs.xemacs newsgroup (if you don't have a Usenet feed, you can use Google Groups interface via the web). There you will find a much larger group of people who use Windows; you don't need an XEmacs developer at this point, just somebody who uses both XEmacs and Windows. _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
