I think Emacs relies on several external programs to do some of it's functionality, and diff is probably one of them. I just install Cygwin and that seems to make Emacs happier, since it also includes things like ispell, a bash shell, and other fun things. Sarir -- Sarir Khamsi software guy sarir.kha...@raytheon.com
