[6 times] byte-code: FTP Error: DIR failed: 550 file specification syntax error I know next-to no emacs LISP, but I am an experienced programmer and I've had a go at debugging this by sprinkling (message ... ...) calls around the code. As far as I can make out, something outside amg-ftp is calling ange-ftp-send-cmd with the command "dir /$DISK1!/". I believe it is that that is casuing the problem, but I can't work out why this command is being attempted. For what it's worth, if I connect to machin from a DOS box and type PWD, the response is "$DISK1:[GRUNWALD]" is current directory. It seems to me that the exclamation mark between DISK1 and the slash is causing the problem, but I've no idea where it's coming from. I'd really like to use Emacs to edit the files as the strain of using the VMS editor for some things, MS-Word (cough) for some things and Emacs for others is beginning to make my head hurt. Thanks, Alan This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation, not to your local site managers! Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers usually do not have translators to read other languages for them. Your report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list and the gnu.emacs.bug news group, and at http://debbugs.gnu.org. Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug and the precise symptoms of the bug. If you can, give a recipe starting from `emacs -Q': If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger, please include the output from the following gdb commands: `bt full' and `xbacktrace'. For information about debugging Emacs, please read the file c:/emacs-23.3/etc/DEBUG.
