Yes I have included Paul's doc in my $HOME/_emacs file:
;; Using bash shell in emacs
(setq binary-process-input t)
(setq w32-quote-process-args ?\")
(setq shell-file-name "/bin/bash") ;; or sh if you rename your bash
(setenv "SHELL" shell-file-name)
(setq explicit-shell-file-name shell-file-name)
(setq explicit-sh-args '("-login" "-i"))
I found out that I can't execute any shell command in emacs at all.
"(Shell command failed with no output)" is the message everytime
I tried to execute shell command.
I have no problem at all executing any command in bash directly.
Is it my cygnus tool or emacs installation problem? let me research
what I did to their installation in the meantime.
Cheers,
