I have tried: M-x compile In minibuffer: cd /plink:..:<pathToGoTo> && ./build.sh It failed because the sh shell actually tried to find the /plink directory Then I tried M-x compile cd <pathToGoTo> && ./build.sh Then it failed with: No such dir found via CDPATH env variable (I assume this is my local windows box) MM _______________________________________________ Tramp-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/tramp-devel
