Yes, there's a DOS port of Bash. However, the users of the DOS port of Emacs (if there still are any out there ;-) do not need to do anything special for that case, since the library function `system' together with msdos.c:run_msdos_command (q.v.) will DTRT for them. Specifically, there's the variable msdos-shells that run_msdos_command checks, and the function `system' from the library used by the DOS port will modify its behavior if $SHELL is set to sh.exe, bash.exe, etc. (I'm not sure this discussion has any significance for the DOS port, since that port doesn't support async subprocesses, and so find-dired will not work there at all.) _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
