Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

Hi,
I try to use emacsclient with --eval. First I open a file, and then I
intend to do more using elisp. I have however problems already to open
files if I use the "../filename"-syntax.

These commands is from my cmd.exe shell:
-----------
C:\>cd "Program Files\emacs-22.1\bin"

C:\Program Files\emacs-22.1\bin>emacsclient.exe --eval "(find-file
\"../README\")"
#<buffer README>

C:\Program Files\emacs-22.1\bin>emacsclient.exe --eval "(find-file
\"../README\")"
#<buffer README<2>>

C:\Program Files\emacs-22.1\bin>

-----------------
The second time I do not get to the README file in the emacs
distribution. Instead emacs tries to open a file README located in
"C:\Program Files\".

Is this intended? I find it strange.

Thanks
Mats

Since this bug only applies to the Emacs 22 branch, and we aren't
planning any more releases from the branch, I'll close this bug.
