Hi Sébastien,

Ok, but at least the locate source should be processed.

Please eval the following defun and invoke anything. Then go to
*Messages* and see if there's an error message of the form

Error processing source: ...

BTW: Do other sources that return files work for you, i.e. the file name
history source? If not, then the problem might be that a candidate
transformer for files doesn't work on windows.
