+This is a list of known problems to date with the Windows NT/95 port of
+GNU Emacs.
+
+* Handle wildcards in ls-lisp (e.g., C-x d *.c).
+
+* Interactive subprocess output is buffered in jerky
+
+* Presently, C:\foo\bar and C:/foo/bar bring up two buffers on the same file.
+ Solve this by adding a switch that canonicalizes path separators
+ (e.g., make them all / or all \)?
+
+* call-process-region: Another tricky situation with binary and text modes.
+ An example by [email protected]: use crypt++ to load compressed
+ data into a buffer, edit the buffer, save the data back out. (Also
+ need to propagate the "/C" switch change sent the shell in crypt++.el
+ back to the author.)
+
+* Dired uses ls-lisp, which reports all files as being owned by the
+ current user. Need to dig through the security descriptor to extract
+ the owner of the file (and the group?) using LookupAccountSid.
+
+* Integrate the build for NT into the GNU config process once
+ a decent shell becomes freely available
+
+* Integrate networking.
+
+* Fix Win95 subprocesses.
