I cannot reproduce this on my Windows 8 computer. I'm confused. The original report said: This occurs in Windows XP up to Windows 8, with Emacs v24.2.1. I though this meant you see this on XP, Windows 7, and Windows 8. Did I misunderstand? I don't have access to Windows 8, but since you say the problem doesn't exist there, that's not important. > I thought you would be curious about the gb.bat, in case it caused > conflicts. The contents of gb.bat are: > > sh --login -i That's what I have in the Properties of the desktop icon that opens the MsysGit Bash terminal window on my XP system. So we do the same thing to start the shell. And I cannot reproduce the problem even when I invoke runemacs from MsysGit Bash. > That's it. And I use it at work and at home. I repeat, the problem appears > to be limited to Windows XP. Can you please answer my other questions: . What version of MsysGit do you have installed on XP? . Does the problem happen when you invoke "runemacs -Q file"? . Does the problem happen when you invoke runemacs NOT from the MsysGit shell? Thanks.
