Hi, My env. is Window 7 64bit + MinGW. I find that find-dired of emacs24 does not work on this env. (I got emacs24 from http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/**emacs/windows/ ) The output of find-dired is like below: * c:/emacs/lisp/:* * find . "(" -name "*find-dired*" ")" -ls* * 227084 7 -rw-r--r-- 1 sthfrnth Administrators 12792 Jan 19:38 find-dired.el* * 956351 6 -rw-r--r-- 1 sthfrnth Administrators 11411 Jan 05:35 find-dired.el.ok* * 227085 5 -rw-r--r-- 1 sthfrnth Administrators 8669 Jan 19:38 find-dired.elc* * 3731074 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 sthfrnth Administrators 7530 Jan 13:35 find-dired.elc.ok* * * * find finished at Fri Jan 27 13:09:23* When enter pressed on file line, it prompted "Unrecognized line! Check directory-listing-before-filename-regexp". I replaced find-dired.el with emacs23's version, it works ok. The output is like below: * c:/emacs/lisp/:* * find . "(" -name "*find-dired*" ")" -exec ls -ld "{}" ";"* * -rw-r--r-- 1 sthfrnth Administrators 11411 Jan 11 05:35 find-dired.el* * -rw-r--r-- 1 sthfrnth Administrators 12792 Jan 16 19:38 find-dired.el.bak* * -rw-r--r-- 1 sthfrnth Administrators 7530 Jan 22 13:35 find-dired.elc* * -rw-r--r-- 1 sthfrnth Administrators 8669 Jan 16 19:38 find-dired.elc.bak* * * * find finished at Fri Jan 27 13:17:44* I think the output of "*find . "(" -name "*find-dired*" ")" -ls*" is not matching some parsing functions in find-dired.el. I tried to modify it but did not succeed. Can anyone fix this?
