5.5.3 Problems You May Encounter

5.5.3 Problems You May Encounter

• In shell mode on Mac OS X, Emacs says, "Warning: no access to tty (Bad file descriptor). Thus no job control in this shell." This happens with the graphical version of Emacs, not with the version run from the Mac OS X Terminal application. If you change to a different shell using the instructions under "Which shell?" earlier in this chapter, the error goes away.

• Some commands don't work on Mac OS X. The graphical version of Mac OS X fails to find some operating system commands, especially when invoking them through M-! (for shell-command). Change to a different shell; see "Which shell?" earlier in this chapter for details. Another problem is that some Unix commands are not available by default on Mac OS X. Try them in the Mac Terminal application to see if they work at all before trying them in shell mode. To increase Mac OS X's Unix functionality, use Fink (http://fink.sourceforge.net) to download a wide variety of Unix commands and software for Mac OS X.

• Some commands don't work on Windows. This chapter describes many commands that have no Windows equivalent. The Windows port of Emacs works well for most Dired functions, the calendar, and the diary. To get Unix command functionality under Windows, install Cygwin (http://cygwin.com).

• Printing does not work from Windows on USB printers. Many USB printers do not support printing from the command line. This problem is not specific to Emacs.
