Hi,
I am having troubles building gnu emacs on a VMS system. The compilation
and linking process works ok. But when I execute build.com then temacs
tries to access files in the wrong spot. Here is a protocol of the build
script:


$ cd emacs
  DISK11:[MOLBIO.RBAUMANN.EMACS]
$ @emacs
$ cd src
  DISK11:[MOLBIO.RBAUMANN.EMACS.SRC]
$ type build.com
$ ! VMS command file to run `temacs.exe' and dump the data file `temacs.dump'.
$ if f$search("temacs.dump;") .nes. "" then delete temacs.dump;*
$ temacs :== $emacs_library:[src]temacs -batch
$ ! temacs -l inc-vers
$ temacs -l loadup.el dump
$ @build
Loading loadup.el...
Loading subr...
.
.
.
Loading buff-menu...
Loading vms-patch...
Loading version.el...
Finding pointers to doc strings...
Opening input file: undocumented error code, @[MOLBIO.RBAUMANN.COMMAND]PATHHOME=
DISK11:[MOLBIO.ETC]DOC

The etc directory is in [MOLBIO.EMACS] and not in [MOLBIO.ETC] where I
don't have any access rights! I am normally working with unix, please
forgive if I made a ridiculous error.
Thanks for any hint.
