Subject: [Ri-emacs-users] Using Cygwin
Message-ID: <2cea51a10803100925s74a8dc9fwf847b7927e6fbdb0@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I'm running emacs 22 on Cygwin and cannot get the ri-emacs to function.
ri won't load correctly and I only have tab completion for 2 functions
Here's what's in my .emacs:  I'm sure I'm missing something.

;; ri-emacs mode
(setq ri-ruby-script "/cygdrive/c/cygwin/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/ri-emacs.rb")
(autoload 'ri "/cygdrive/c/cygwin/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/ri-ruby" nil t)
;;Bind the ri command to a key
;;Method/class completion is also available
(add-hook 'ruby-mode-hook (lambda ()
	(local-set-key "\C-cd" 'ri)
    (local-set-key "\C-cf" 'ri-ruby-complete-symbol)
    (local-set-key "C-ca" 'ri-ruby-show-args)
))
;;NOTE: None of the above bindings work so something is wrong.

This from the Messages buffer when I attempt to execute a ri-TAB-COMPLETION

Loading /cygdrive/c/cygwin/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/ri-ruby.el (source)...done
setq: Searching for program: no error, ruby
Making completion list...
Possible completions are:
ri-ruby-complete-symbol		   ri-ruby-show-args

I'd certainly appreciate any help, thanks.
