From: John DOT Wiersba AT medstat DOT com (John Wiersba) Subject: shell escape 21 Oct 1998 03:26:36 -0700 Message-ID: <03F4742D8225D21191EF00805FE62B9993C65E.cygnus.gnu-win32@mail.medstat.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain To: "'gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com'" I'm very new at gnu-win32. From within vim, I try :!sh and get Cannot execute shell /bin/bash^M Same for trying to execute other programs from within vim. This is using both version 5.2f ALPHA and 5.0p ALPHA of vim. I have installed (some) version of coolview -- uname -a shows CYGWIN32_NT machine 4.0 19.3 i686 unknown When I searched the mailing list archives, I found some headers which apparently matched from about March, but the engine couldn't retrieve the body of the messages. Any ideas?
