Subject: emacs diff not available
Date: Wed, 29 Oct 2014 02:30:04 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1414575004372-335947.post@n5.nabble.com> (raw)
Hello,
I am new in the field of editing with emacs and need help.
I have dowloaded cygwin and would like to use emacs as text editor.
The first thing I wanted to do is to compare 2 files.
To do so, I lauch emacs from the "C:\cygwin\bin" where I find
"emacs-w32.exe".
I then open my two files.
Then, I do "tool -> compare -> two buffers" but a message appears saying "No
such file or directory, diff".
But in "C:\cygwin\bin" there is "diff.exe".
I do not understand what is missing?
Could you help me please with that?
Best regards,
Hugo
