| Oct 21, 2016 at 1:57 | comment | added | Jens Lange | I would like to mention that I went back to nt-emacs. I came to the conclusion that under windows the nt version works overall better. A lot of packages with dependency on the OS or external windows programs do not work correctly under the cygwin version. Fixing that is beyond me. The official nt version 25 is now 64bit and they offer an official dependency package. The only thing I miss is pdf-tools, but I hope that will be solved by time. Currently I use cygwin only for aspell, git and difftools as an extension to nt-emacs. | |

Strange. I don't see this option detailed anywhere in 'man emacs' (Cygwin) nor online here: gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/…. When I try a plain emacs-w32 -n, it complains about Unknown option -n'.

Changed last line to %bin%\run.exe --quote %bin%\emacsclient-w32 -n "%filepath%" . Seems to work in general with local and UNC path. Still there is a problem with emacs. I used process exporer and found out it somehow does some crazy stuff when opening a file on an SMB share. This stuff is also the reason why it takes so long to open a file on an smb-share compared to programms like notepad++. I've seen some suggestions but none worked. Well at least the file now opens when Emacs is done with it's stuff.
