Currently, in find_and_set_default_shell (main.c) when the SHELL variable or default shell ends with "cmd.exe" or similar variant, it is explicitely accepted. Hence this point should be fixed already. Because "command.com" is not considered, behaviour is different for win9x. _______________________________________________ Make-w32 mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/make-w32
