Ok. In this specific case, which is trying to run a program and failing from inside Emacs, I think it could be argued both ways: that it is more informative to know there's something a bit off in your PATH, or that it is irrelevant, because the relevant info is that the program couldn't be run.

Ok.

In this specific case, which is trying to run a progr= am and failing from inside Emacs, I think it could be argued both ways: tha= t it is more informative to know there's something a bit off in your PA= TH, or that it is irrelevant, because the relevant info is that the program= couldn't be run.

I suppose the answer to "one way or the o= ther" is "Yes, as long as it is consistently done in all platform= s."
