That would be rather silly to expect. After all, the cd has to be interpreted by the shell. Try using M-x eshell RET and you'll find things work better. > Actually, the cd command is accepted, and the new value of > default-directory reflects it. Emacs is fooled into believing that the shell is changing directories. > But if I do pwd in the shell buffer, it still prints the Windows > Temp directory (and ls shows files in that Temp directory). Try doing something like M-! in a remote file buffer. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum
