Emacs ignores signals

2007-04-14 Thread Edwin Goei
I just switched from xemacs to gnu emacs 21.3.50.1 on cygwin 1.5.24(0.156/4/2) with an X server (the latest versions I can find). I have shell-mode working, except that signals sent to the subprocess are ignored. For example, if I want to cancel or stop a process, I should be able to type C-c C-c

Windows *.exe and stderr in xemacs shell-mode fail to appear

2005-01-13 Thread Edwin Goei
I don't like the Windows DOS Prompt type command window and so I use xemacs shell-mode instead. I have a Windows *.exe program that I think outputs to stderr. When I run it in a shell-mode buffer, a new DOS Window is opened and all output goes to the DOS window and not the shell-mode buffer.

rsync hangs

2004-09-06 Thread Edwin Goei
I'm trying to use rsync but it hangs and I am unable to kill it using the Windows task manager. I've seen postings about using rsync for backup. Is this a known problem? Any ideas? $ rsync -av d1 d1.bak # command hangs OS: Windows XP Pro SP2 $ uname -srv CYGWIN_NT-5.1 1.5.7(0.109/3/2)

X server hangs on startup

2004-08-07 Thread Edwin Goei
When I run xinit.exe, the X server starts but hangs. I saw a thread that attributed this to Zonealarm which I am also using (version 5.1.011.000). I never saw a resolution to the problem. Is the workaround to use a different firewall program? If so, what firewall should I use? Thanks.

Fork, xemacs 21.4.13, and shell-mode

2004-06-04 Thread Edwin Goei
Hi, I use shell-mode in xemacs with cygwin. This works great on a unix system, but with the cygwin version, xemacs sometimes goes crazy and takes 100% of the CPU and I often have to kill xemacs. I think it's related to shell-mode because sometimes when I kill a shell-mode window, the CPU

shortcut to start xemacs in bash cygwin window

2004-03-28 Thread Edwin Goei
I would like to be able to have a Windows shortcut that will do the equivalent of the following: 1) run cygwin.bat 2) execute xemacs in the cygwin bash window 3) exit the cygwin bash window 4) leaving xemacs running. I would like to start xemacs in this way so I can have my default bash

Beep or playing a sound

2004-03-19 Thread Edwin Goei
Is there a program that will beep or make a sound in cygwin? In bash, I've tried echo -e \\a and I get a control-G char but no sound. Is there a program that will play a sound file that comes w/ cygwin? I run xemacs which does produce sounds but I'm looking for a simpler way. -Edwin --

Cygwin xemacs 21.4.14 fonts broken

2004-02-12 Thread Edwin Goei
I am installing xemacs on cygwin on a new PC and want to get a smaller font size like my old PC so more text can fit on the screen. I recently installed cygwin 1.5.7 and the xemacs 21.4.14 that came with it, but the fonts are broken. When I select Options-Font Size-, I see a greyed out menu item
