M-x preview-submit-bug-report RET But my guess would be that you specified your gs _directory_ as GS during configuration rather than your gswin32c.exe program. When the configuration process is explicitly told that you know what you mean, it obeys. It is not like the installation instructions don't tell you: Some executables might not be found in your path. That is not a good idea, but you can get around by specifying environment variables to `configure': GS="DRIVE:/PATH/TO/GSWIN32C.EXE" ./configure ... should work for this purpose. `gswin32c.exe' is the usual name for the required _command line_ executable under Windows; in contrast, `gswin32.exe' is likely to fail. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum
