Subject: Running a SFU POSIX shell on Emacs for Windows
Date: Wed, 15 Oct 2003 11:44:53 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4B8422D300DD314CA8F52F2F4A7F26840135EBF9@dewdfx12.wdf.sap.corp> (raw)
I use Services for Unix (SFU) from Microsoft and would like to access its C shell from Emacs shell mode. This does not currently seem possible with the environment variable SHELL or the line (setq explicit-shell-file-name "C:\WINNT\System32\posix.exe /u /c /bin/csh -l") in the configuration file. The shell is started by calling posix.exe with
C:\WINNT\System32\posix.exe /u /c /bin/csh -l
It seems that Emacs does not pass the arguments /u /c /bin/csh -l to the executable posix.exe and therefore the shell is not started. Moving to Cygwin is not an option for many users of SFU. Could this missing functionality be considered by the Emacs development team?
