Info-directory-list became then: ("D:\\Emacs\\emacs28\\share\\info\\" "D:\\appl\\MSYS2\\usr\\share\\info") Works for me, at least when starting under the MinGW shell, thank you very much! But why is Emacs switching here to the Windows path notation, I thought Emacs is using internally always slashes? Then, I've to check if this works when starting Emacs without a shell. Presumably not, maybe I've to set then the environment variable in the OS? >> By the way, there was no runemacs.bat in the installation directory >> created. > > Neither should there be. Why did you expect to see runemacs.bat? I think runemacs.bat is coming from the Emacs installers for Windows. Its sole content is: runemacs.exe -Q Helpful, didn't know that, but I'd rename it to emacs-Q.bat... >> ------------------------------ >> 3) MSYS2 MinGW 64-bit, is working >> ------------------------------ > And make sure the directory with MinGW DLLs is on PATH. Thanks, will do :-) I'd also like to mention, that the MSYS2 shells - seemingly - have no job control: C-z in the terminal window means Emacs is gone forever :-/ Thankfully C-z under Gnu-Emacs just minimises it. Well, the next topics will be the "little helper" programs ;-) M-$ apply: Searching for program: No such file or directory, ispell and gpg when doing (list-packages) Failed to verify signature archive-contents.sig: No public key for 066DAFCB81E42C40 created at 2021-10-13T23:10:03+0200 using RSA Command output: gpg: keyblock resource '/c/Users/uidg1626/.emacs.d/log/c:/Users/uidg1626/.emacs.d/elpa/gnupg/pubring.kbx': No such file or directory gpg: Signature made Wed Oct 13 23:10:03 2021 WEST gpg: using RSA key C433554766D3DDC64221BFAA066DAFCB81E42C40 gpg: Can't check signature: No public key Dieter -- Best wishes H.
