Subject: bug#10307: 23.3; Shell fails to run when current-working-directory is not existant
Date: Fri, 16 Dec 2011 07:41:01 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111216021100.GA2017@byron.anthology> (raw)
* Steps to reproduce bug
1. C-x C-f ~/nonExistant/foo.txt
not do this because I want to use the shell to run a command that
(Message: Type M-x make-directory RET RET to create directory) I do
would create this for me.
2. M-x shell
(Message: No such file or directory) Shell does not open
* Expected Behaviour
1. Open shell with nearest parent directory that is alive
(or)
2. Prompt for the working-directory for shell
(or in the worst case)
3. Die with an Error: Shell cannot work without an existing current
directory
