It's running cygwin as its shell, and CVS as the versioning backed. An added complexity is that repository access is via ssh. This works from an internal shell within emacs, although it prompts for a password (I presume emacs can cope with this? I seem to remember on redhat, I get a gnome window popping up from ssh, which isn't going to happen on windows). In almost all cases VC, or PCL-CVS seem just to hang. Has anyone got any experiences with this? Have you got VC/cvs/ssh working under NTEmacs? Cheers Phil
