Hello,
I have Emacs-21.3 on Win98 running.
A (find-name-dired "anydir" "anypattern") results in:
=>
n:/anydir/:
find . \( -name 'anypattern' \) -exec ls -ld {} \;
find: paths must precede expression
Usage: find [path...] [expression]
find exited abnormally with code 1...
Apparently Emacs has some problem with the path specification, as it can't
process a `.' here. The same problem happens in the eshell as well, if I
specify `.' as path.
However, find works in the Dos-box as expected, as well as with
(shell-command "find ."). So I think the issue is not with find.exe (from
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/).
Can you help me?
