OK how about a command that says start this Windows console mode application using whatever it is that will make it happy enough to talk to stdin/stdout/stderr (short of starting a new window that is). > You should be able to start a command in a new console window with > "cygstart" (q.v.). Yes I can, however this starts it in another "Windows window" that does not easily resize, has crappy copy/paste semantics, colors and fonts. IOW all the reasons why I'm running rxvt! What I want is for it to run in the rxvt window so that I can have the nicer copy/paste, etc, not start a new window. -- I put instant coffee in my microwave oven and almost went back in time. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
