Strange enough that only tcsh has it. Starting e.g. vim from the tcsh prompt and then resizing inside of vim is ok and tcsh will not exit. That's probably a signal related problem since resizing a window results in sending a SIGWINCH to the process group of the sshd child process, tcsh in this case. > http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-06/msg00673.html Ah, yes, we already had a similar problem. Somehow tcsh is very touchy. I will look into this.
