[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I've been getting the following message for a while now and I'm
wondering what this is trying to load.  I get the following error:

'c:/Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

when I load any tex file (the first time).

When I do my message buffer is as shown below and a shell output buffer
shows the message:

'c:/Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Everything seems to be working, but this is indicating that something is
not being found.  Any thought as to what may be failing?

Hi Shawn,

Together with the problem you describe, do you also find 
that a shell buffer has been opened?

In my case the problem was the 'preview-gs-command' 
variable: I set it using short-path notation: 
"c:\\PROGRA~1\\GS\\BIN\\GSWIN32C.EXE", and I got rid of that 
problem. Possibly it's because spaces in the standard string 
set up by AUCTeX aren't escaped properly...

Hope this helps.
J

Hi Shawn,

Together with the problem you describe, do you also find that a shell buffer has been opened?

In my case the problem was the 'preview-gs-command' 
variable: I set it using short-path notation: 
"c:\\PROGRA~1\\GS\\BIN\\GSWIN32C.EXE", and I got rid of that problem. Possibly it's because spaces in the standard string set up by AUCTeX aren't escaped properly...

Hope this helps.
J

Thanks for this information.  Do you know exactly where the error is
triggered?  The only possible place I found was `preview-gs-restart',
but `start-process' should be smart enough to properly handle
arguments with spaces in them.

Bye,
Mosè

Hi Mosè,

Thank you very much for your interest in this. Unfortunately 
I've never managed to pinpoint where the spaces are creating 
the problem; as you say, paths with spaces don't cause 
problems in other settings handled by 'start-process'... 
That's also why I've never submitted this bug. Could it be 
the function that retrieves the GS path? I'll take a look 
once more and let you know (it'll take a couple of days).

Cheers!
J

It's just a series of `executable-find's, which is a fairly simple
function: it checks whether there is a file with the provided name in
`exec-path' and if it's executable.  If the file is found returns it,
otherwise it won't rise an error.  Shawn reported a "File not found"
error, but I can't understand from where it's thrown.  I noticed that
his value for `preview-gs-command' is actually nil, I can't understand
where the "c:/Program" path pops out.

Thanks, it would be great.

(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.  And sorry the premature mail I sent.)

More information was requested, but not provided.  Therefore I'm closing
this report for now.  We can reopen if new inpu arrives.

Best, Arash
