This is a problem with Emacs 23.1, and NOT with 22.1.1.
Attempting to perform a find-file on a VAX no longer works. Looking into the ftp buffer
reveals what appears to be the problem: the syntax of a directory command is incorrect.Note that this does not cause Emacs to crash - just to fail to access remote files.
For example: in connecting to a machine called Pine (not the email program! - we
have a tree motif here) with the user tcarroll results in the following:dir [.".AP:.TCARROLL]" c:/DOCUME~1/tcarroll/LOCALS~1/Temp/ange-ftp3268PtF
The correct syntax is created by Emacs 22.1:
dir AP:[TCARROLL] c:/DOCUME~1/tcarroll/LOCALS~1/Temp/ange-ftp2724gSG
I hope you understand VAX file syntax - VAX stuff is pretty far out of date these days.
By the way, Emacs is fantastic, and as a technology professional I live half my life in
this software.Thanks!

Finally, this has been solved in Emacs 24.1. Thanks for your continuous testing all the proposed patches! Note, that `ange-ftp-binary-file-name-regexp' is the empty string in Emacs 24. For proper editing of text files on a remote VMS machine, this variable must be changed to match binary files. > Thanks, > Alan Best regards, Michael.
