Is the above something a file viewer is likely to do? And if it does, how would you suggest to countermand that? > and finally `process-file-shell-command' does not allow to report > failure. The original code uses start-process-shell-command, and I don't think I understand why you wanted to call process-file-shell-command instead. Can you explain?
