Running: GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386-msvc-nt5.1.2600) of 2003-03-27 on buffy on: Windows XP SP2
When I run rsh from a shell window in Emacs, I get extra output Terminal readThe handle is invalid. in the stderr stream: # c:/winnt/system32/rsh somehost.sas.com echo hello Terminal readThe handle is invalid. hello : # I'm also getting a colon and a space but no newline after the command output. This also occurs when I switch the shell to cmd: # cmd C:\> c:\WINNT\system32\rsh somehost.sas.com echo hello Terminal readThe handle is invalid. hello : C:\> My SHELL and ESHELL environment variables are "bash". This occurs with emacs -q M-x shell so it is not due to any .emacs customization. Even if I trim my PATH to just C:\Winnt\system32 and unset SHELL and ESHELL, the problem persists. If I run a normal cygwin bash or windows cmd shell outside of Emacs, I do not get this extra output. Does anyone know what causes this and more importantly how to remove it? I could not find much on this via Google. -- David J. Biesack SAS Institute Inc. (919) 531-7771 SAS Campus Drive http://www.sas.com Cary, NC 27513
