I wrote an entire e-mail before reading the text that accompanies the tramp-sh-program setting. Assuming that tramp-sh-program is only executed locally (as it says), I have rewritten the e-mail.

It's a cool idea, that trick of yours. > Except that currently, my trick does not work. ;-) And if changing tramp-sh-program to command.com is the solution, then that should be what's documented. By that I mean, if I had tramp-sh-program set to command.com before this started, it would have just worked. In other words, tramp's ability to do hops with multi methods is the cool idea. I just found a place where it doesn't work. Yet. I'll try setting tramp-sh-program to command.com when I get home. Is there anything I should particularly look at in trying to test to make sure something else isn't inadvertantly broken. > >kai > > _______________________________________________ Tramp-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.freesoftware.fsf.org/mailman/listinfo/tramp-devel
