From: lizt AT synopsys DOT com (B. Elizabeth Trojan) Subject: default shell for perl(activeware)/emacs 5 Jan 1998 13:37:30 -0800 Message-ID: <34B14EF7.4487EB71.cygnus.gnu-win32@synopsys.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com I've noticed that the default shell for perl and emacs is not sh/bash. In perl executing a command using the backtick command results in the command being interpreted by a windows cmd shell. Likewise if you attempt to start a shell in emacs. How have other people dealt with this issue? -- Liz Trojan Synopsys (503)531-2297 Office Beaverton (503)690-6906 FAX - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
