Subject: bug#21421: 24.5; python mode interpreter path problem on windows.
Date: Sat, 05 Sep 2015 00:48:51 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <emacfd2763-c42b-4dbe-8433-948d26ab7d14@probook> (raw)
Hello,
python-shell-parse-command in python.el appears to have an issue on
Windows
which prevents proper startup of the python interpreter depending on the
interpreter's path. Here is the current version of
python-shell-parse-command in python.el, as of Emacs 24.5.1.
(defun python-shell-parse-command () ;FIXME: why name it "parse"?
"Calculate the string used to execute the inferior Python process."
;; FIXME: process-environment doesn't seem to be used anywhere within
;; this let.
(let ((process-environment
(python-shell-calculate-process-environment))
(exec-path (python-shell-calculate-exec-path)))
(format "%s %s"
;; FIXME: Why executable-find?
(shell-quote-argument
(executable-find python-shell-interpreter))
python-shell-interpreter-args)))
The problem is with the usage of "shell-quote-argument" to quote the
pathname coming out of "executable-find".
Suppose you have python installed at "C:\Anaconda\python.exe", and
"C:\Anaconda" is on your path.
Then when we run
(executable-find python-shell-interpreter)
we get the output
"c:/Anaconda/python.exe"
This is a valid path which can be used to launch python.
However
(shell-quote-argument "c:/Anaconda/python.exe")
results in
"c\\:/Anaconda/python.exe"
This is NOT a valid windows path, as an extra backquote has been
inserted before the colon (second character).
Since python-parse-interpeter uses shell-quote-argument, you get the
following error when you run "run-python" to start up a python
interpreter.
"apply: Searching for program: no such file or directory,
c\:/Anaconda/python.exe"
If I modify Python.el to remove the call to "shell-quote-argument",
run-python works properly on my system.
Here is the value of my PATH in emacs.
(getenv "PATH")
":/usr/local/bin:/mingw/bin:/bin;C:\\Program
