I downloaded precompiled binary for emacs-21 off GNU archives, I have more or less current CVS version of zsh (it dhould not matter wrt the above problem) and I have current Cygwin installation. All I did was set ESHELL to d:\cygwin\bin\zsh.exe and start it in Emacs with M-x shell (that pretty much everything I can do in emacs; even that took 15 minutes to find out :-) I have no problems running any command at all; like MW1G17C% print $options[zle] off MW1G17C% print $CYGWIN MW1G17C% pwd /cygdrive/c MW1G17C% cd MW1G17C% pwd /cygdrive/c MW1G17C% echo $HOME /cygdrive/c Sorry, but you probably are better off asking this on Cygwin list, especially as the problem is not limited to zsh. BTW my emacs sets TERM to emacs which slightly contradicts with FAQ: d:\cygwin\bin\zsh.exeMW1G17C% echo $TERM emacs also HOME is weird (I have different one; may be emacs overwrites it) and none of rc files are run. Check if you have some unusual setting in your rc files; try with zsh -f; try with the current Cygwin version. Finally, why do not you use precompiled binaries for emacs? -andrej
