It you are on w32 chances are you may give up quite a lot of times since
it is IMO more complicated to get a useful Emacs there. That is one
reason I wrote the installation package for EmacsW32. I still think
Emacs on w32 should be distributed as an installation package for those
who wants a precompiled Emacs with the needed extra binaries (grep etc).
Here is a fresh, just some minutes old, example of the difficulties from
the emacs on windows list. I have seen many like this.

"I am trying to print from Emacs on windows XP. I am using Emacs 22.1.1.
I am trying to use postscript print through ghostscript. The ghostscript
version is 8.61. My .emacs is:
;; Setup Ghostscript 8.61 as the postscript printer
(setenv "GS_LIB" "e:\\Tools\\gs\\gs8.61;e:\\Tools\\gs\\fonts")
(setq ps-lpr-command "e:/Tools/gs/gs8.61/bin/gswin32c")
(setq ps-lpr-switches '("-q" "-dNOPAUSE" "-dBATCH" "-sDEVICE=mswinpr2"))
(setq ps-printer-name t)
When I attempt to print there is no error message and no print –
nothing. Ghostscript does seem to work – at least through ghostview. It
is probably a simple erro, but I don’t see it.
thanx"
