This is a list of known problems to date with the Windows NT/95 port of
GNU Emacs.
* Handle wildcards in ls-lisp (e.g., C-x d *.c).
* Interactive subprocess output is buffered in jerky
* Presently, C:\foo\bar and C:/foo/bar bring up two buffers on the same file.
Solve this by adding a switch that canonicalizes path separators
(e.g., make them all / or all \)?
* call-process-region: Another tricky situation with binary and text modes.
An example by dsrosing@reston.ingr.com: use crypt++ to load compressed
data into a buffer, edit the buffer, save the data back out. (Also
need to propagate the "/C" switch change sent the shell in crypt++.el
back to the author.)
* Dired uses ls-lisp, which reports all files as being owned by the
current user. Need to dig through the security descriptor to extract
the owner of the file (and the group?) using LookupAccountSid.
* Integrate the build for NT into the GNU config process once
a decent shell becomes freely available
* Integrate networking.
* Fix Win95 subprocesses.
