got a very odd problem that's driving me nuts.
in cygwin prompt, i can call one of imagemagick's command and get
result.
However, while in emacsw32 shell, identical call results Windows Vista
poppig up a window telling me some app crashed.
Anyone got some idea what's wrong?
-----------------------------------
here's more precise detail.
Here's how i call a program in cygwin terminal:
xah@xah-PC ~/web/dinju/i
$ convert Bazaar_zanjan.jpg Bazaar_zanjan.png
the above converts a jpg image to png, successfully.
Here's how i call it in emacsW32. In dired, cd to the dir, then Alt+x
shell, then “convert Bazaar_zanjan.jpg Bazaar_zanjan.png”.
Then, Windows pops up dialog about “convert.exe has stopped working”
with the following error:
Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
Application Name: convert.exe
Application Version: 0.0.0.0
Application Timestamp: 4807a468
Fault Module Name: cygX11-6.dll

this popup repeats 6 times.
Same thing happens if you simply call “identify” without running any
arguments, with about the exact same error message. e.g.
Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
Application Name: identify.exe
Application Version: 0.0.0.0

“identify” is another command in imagemagick, it works fine if called
in cygwin terminal. Here's the log:
xah@xah-PC ~/web/dinju/i
$ identify Bazaar_zanjan.jpg
Bazaar_zanjan.jpg JPEG 450x445 450x445+0+0 DirectClass 8-bit
65.793kb
------------
Cygwin has been re-installed many times in the past 2 weeks. I was
able to run imagemagick commands within emacsW32 before without a
problem. The problem happened with my last reinstall of cygwin.
the odd thing is that it runs fine within cygwin terminal. I thought
maybe i'm missing some component in cygwin, but don't know which X11
related package corresponds to cygX11-6.dll. I thought maybe i had
some bad path setup in emacsW32, but went thru all my emacs init files
couldn't identify it. Same problem happens if i run emacs with -q,
then manually set-variable w32shell-cygwin-bin to “"C:\\cygwin\\bin"”
and w32shell-shell to “cygwin”, then run my command.
any suggestions?
Thanks.
