Hi,

Recently started using XEmacs for most of my coding work. The USP was
the "compile" command that lets you use C-` to cycle through errors
from the compiler-generated messages.

But it seems XEmacs invokes "sh" for the purpose, although
~/.emacs_bash exists, and SHELL is set to "/bin/bash". It invokes bash
correctly when I use "M-x shell".

The problem is that my Makefile's depend on a lot of environment
variables that are set using my .bashrc But sh invoked in
non-interactive mode will not load .profile, which is the equivalent
file.

I need a way to make sure that XEmacs uses /bin/bash when compiling so
that all the necessary environment variables are set from my .bashrc

Sameer.
