Well, then move them out. That's the whole point of the above construct: getting a string _verbatim_ from the environment without any interpretation of quotes or backslashes or similar. The above has not been written as emacs --eval "(do-something-with \"$FILENAME\")" for good reason. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
