Do this:

> mkdir bash_emacs_confusion
> cd bash_emacs_confusion
> mkdir a
> touch a/b
> emacs a/b

In emacs I press C-Z and get a bash shell (1):
> pwd
e:/hackery/bash_emacs_confusion
> ls
b

So bash thinks it's in e:/hackery/bash_emacs_confusion but ls shows us
being in e:/hackery/bash_emacs_confusion/b!

emacs is version 20.5 and bash is version 2.04.7(1)-release.

SHELL=e:/djgpp/bin/bash.exe

Anything else you want to know?


1) Another mystification, sometimes the screen after shelling out has
white-grey background and black text - the emacs colours sticks. This
is not easily reproduced.


Right,
