I'm trying to run `M-x rgrep RET' on a windows emacs. I have installed find and grep from GnuWin32 ( http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/ ) and put them early in the PATH. When I try to run rgrep it exits with no match, and in the *grep* I see the following error message: C:\ProgramFiles\GnuWin32\bin\find: invalid expression; I was expecting to = find a ')' somewhere but did not see one. The command line is: C:\ProgramFiles\GnuWin32\bin\find .
