Bundled grep.exe causes grep to fail · Issue #5 · GChristensen/rho-emacs (original) (raw)
Running M-x grep
returns no results.
Attempting to run the bundled grep.exe from the command line pops up an error dialog saying that pcre.dll was not found. rho-emacs\utils\gnu
contains pcre3.dll
but not pcre.dll
. The other exe files all successfully report --version
.
A related issue is that I needed to modify the default command line in M-x grep
to put double quotes around c:/Program Files/rho-emacs/utils/gnu/grep.exe
as it contains a space.
I can work around this issue by calling the Cygwin grep on my PC.
