Hello: I'm using MiKTeX 1.0 on NT and it works great. I'm trying to use it with Emacs 19.34.4 (I'd prefer not to upgrade to 20.x, if at all possible), but I'm having a few problems: 1) I use MKS sh as my default shell on NT, but this causes Emacs to hang when I do a C-c C-f in LaTeX mode. I have to eventually kill and restart Emacs to "fix" the problem. 2) So, because of (1), I switched to using cmd.exe as my shell in tex-mode by setting tex-shell-file-name to "cmd.exe" Now, C-c C-f does the right thing the first time I use it, the next time I try it, Emacs complains: "writing to process: invalid argument, tex-shell". Then, the third time it works, fourth time it fails with the same message, etc. Very annoying, and I'm not too sure what's going on. If anyone has any ideas about either of these problems, please let me know. Thanks, -Emerick -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Emerick Rogul /\/ "i've said many, many, many unkind things about emerick@cs.bu.edu /\/ philadelphia, and i meant every one of them." ----------------------------------------------------------- david lynch
