Subject: cd command on PC version (Emacs 20.7.1)
Date: 18 Aug 2005 14:55:03 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <85mznfrpew.fsf@emr.cs.iit.edu> (raw)

When I use C-c C-f in a LaTeX file, the *tex-shell* buffer is generated and a
change directory command is given; on my PC it looks like

  c:\ed\bin>cd c:/ed/
  cd c:/ed/
  The system cannot find the path specified.

The problem being that the slashes should be backslashes.  Is there a simpel
fix to this--the directory name is given by file-name-directory which should
be smart enough to get it right for the PC!

Do I have to write my own PC version, or has this been done?
