Hello all,

I recently upgraded to the latest version of ESS via Vincent Goulet's Emacs
bundle, and I am having issues submitting code to a remote SAS process
(which worked prior to the upgrade).  Essentially, my procedure to run SAS
was to do the following:

1) M-x ssh
2) Enter required information to log in remotely to a Unix SAS server.
3) Start SAS from the command line with the following command:

sas -stdio -linesize 80 -noovp -nosyntaxcheck -autoexec autoexec.sas
-display **IP Address here**
4) M-x ess-remote in the same buffer as the remote SAS session
5) Type "sas" when dialect is requested

Then I could submit code from a sas file using commands like

ess-eval-line-and-step-invisibly

Now when I run the above command, Emacs spawns a new "shell" window and
gives the error "Spawning child process: invalid argument."

Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this?

Thanks much!
McKay
