I use some Emacs extensions which execute external programs using
(call-process). This used to work on my previous setup, but it fails on
my current box. The following command run in Emacs reproduces what seems
to be the problem:
(call-process "bash" nil '(t t) nil "-ic" "ls -al")
bash: Kann die Prozessgruppe des Terminals nicht setzen (-1).:
Inappropriate ioctl for device
bash: Keine Job Steuerung in dieser Shell.
Markus,
Why are you calling bash with the -i option in this context? Your first
`nil' causes bash's input to come from /dev/null. Does it make sense to
have an interactive shell with input coming from /dev/null? If you
remove -i and just run
(call-process "bash" nil '(t t) nil "-c" "ls -al") ,
it works fine with both cygwin 1.7.9 and the latest snapshot.
Maybe there's still a Cygwin bug here; I tested your original command in
Linux, and it worked. But omitting -i might at least be a workaround
for you.
