Re: BJam and XEmacs on WinXP

To reply to myself once more: I found the problem. The default setting in XEmacs for the option "Explicit Msdos Shell File Name" was cmdproxy.exe -- a program that I don't seem to have anywhere on my system. Changing it to refer explicitly to c:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe fixed this problem for me.

Thanks for listening. :-)

Interesting. "cmdproxy.exe" is what's used by GNU emacs on Windows to launch shell commands. -- ----------------------------------------------------------- David Abrahams * Boost Consulting dave@boost-consulting.com * http://www.boost-consulting.com
