+ (find-sh0 \"ls -l ~/Coetzee99.pdf\")
+
+because it requires a Unix-style `ls'. It works in Eshell,
+though. Try:
+
+ (eepitch-eshell)
+ (eepitch-kill)
+ (eepitch-eshell)
+ ls --help
+ ls -l ~/Coetzee99.pdf
+
+That's because eshell defines its `ls' in Lisp. See:

+ (find-eshellnode \"Built-ins\")

+Also, the tests in section 6 don't work on Windows - one of the
+things that `ee-use-windows' does is to make `find-pdf-page' use
+a browser to open PDFs, and section 6 uses a PDF viewer called
+\"xpdf\". Take a look:
+
+ (find-pdf-like-intro \"6. How the external programs are called\")
+
+So: check that everything in sections 1-5 and 7 work, except for
+the test that uses `ls'. The links to pages of PDFs converted to
+text should work - the conversion to text will be done by
+~/bin/pdftotext.exe, that you downloaded and tested in section 7.
