I am running emacs 24 and I want to set up tramp to read/write file on my ubuntu machine.
When I emacs 24 on windows 7 tryinng to open a remote file by C-x C-f /[email protected]:/home/mikes , tramp cannot find plink program. And i did print the exec path, I do have C:/Programs/Putty in my exec path: exec-path is a variable defined in `C source code'. Its value is ("C:/Programs/PuTTy" .....) But I still get plink -load 10.136.11.77 -t env 'TERM=dumb' 'PROMPT_COMMAND=' 'PS1=#$ ' /bin/sh && exit || exit plink is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. I have this in my .emacs: (require 'tramp) (require 'package) (add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/";) t) (add-to-list 'exec-path "C:/Programs/PuTTy") (if (eq system-type 'windows-nt) (setq tramp-default-method "plinkx")) any idea how to fix my problem?
