Re: gtags and emacs on WinNT

[Shigio Yamaguchi]

Hello,
I interpreted your descriptions like follows:
Is it right?

(...) is my comment.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description:
        Global(1) cannot access GTAGS on network drive.
Environment:
        WindowsNT (version unknown)
GLOBAL version:
        version 4.0 compiled by DJGPP.
        (But it may be version 4.0.1 because Jason Hood's port is 4.0.1.)
How-To-Repeat:

        [UNIX]
        1. Make GLOBAL's tags at directory '/xxx/src'.
           ('xxx' unknown.)

        [WindowsNT]
        1. Map above directory '/xxx' as a network drive 'V:'.
           (I cannot understand the word 'mount' in WindowsNT
           but I think it means 'network drive'.)
        2. Select V: drive. No problem.
                C:\> v:
                V:\>
        3. Change directory to 'src'. No problem.
                V:\> cd src
                V:\src>
        4. 'GTAGS' is found at V:\src.
                V:\src>dir GTAGS
                ????????????????????? GTAGS
                V:\src>
                (I forgot DIR's format.)
        5. Global command failed like this:

                V:\src> global xxx
                global: GTAGS not found.
                V:\>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

By the way, I don't have WindowsNT environment.
Are there any person who encounter above problem?
