The procedure `exec-path/env' gives "No executable found." if it fails to execute the given program. This error message is misleading since there can be other reasons for the failure, e.g. the command line was too long. I think something along the lines of "Failed to run program/executable." would be more appropriate. -- Emílio C. Lopes Munich, Germany |
