Subject: bug#6535: 24.0.50; grep seems not to work
Date: Tue, 29 Jun 2010 12:03:11 +0100 (BST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.1006291200500.13717@snout.codemist.co.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4C29CDEF.6050903@swipnet.se>
The real problem is that in lisp/grep.el there is
(defun grep-process-setup ()
...
;; Any TERM except "dumb" allows GNU grep to use `--color=auto'
(setenv "TERM" "emacs-grep")
(setenv "GREP_OPTIONS"
(concat (getenv "GREP_OPTIONS")
" --color=" (if (eq grep-highlight-matches 'always)
"always" "auto")))
...
but there is no terminal type emacs-grep so the process call fails to
start before it gets to call /bin/grep or set TERM=vt100
So, what is this emacs-grep terminal type and how did it change from when
it worked.
