This package also makes it easier to open bash shell buffers (using MSYS bash) under emacs in MSWindows, and also allows some easier update of the default-directory variable when you make CD to some path (like changing the driver letter, or using the MSYS fstab links). If you are interested in that I can put w32utils.el on my page and send you a link. This is still very experimental, and the manual is not uptodate. Well, this package makes a strict and complete conversion of paths to URL, and this is the reason for the %3A. > cheers, > > Giovanni > BR, Vincent. > _______________________________________________ > Emacs-orgmode mailing list > Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list. > Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org > http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode
