Subject: bug#6674: PATCH: fix assignment of grep-find-use-xargs on Windows
Date: Wed, 21 Jul 2010 01:18:38 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <871vax3fox.fsf@telefonica.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <878w564xtc.fsf@telefonica.net>
rgrep is broken on Windows. Although it is obvious that a general fix
for the shell issue is the most correct resolution for this bug, I
propose to apply the patch below and revert it once cmdproxy.c is
enhanced for dealing with the problem.
Otherwise, a workaround is to add
(setq grep-find-use-xargs 'exec)
to the user's .emacs file.

* progmodes/grep.el (grep-compute-defaults): always assign
'exec to grep-find-use-xargs on Windows.
