Thompson) Date: 03 Apr 2003 11:29:33 +0100 In-Reply-To: Message-ID: Lines: 29 User-Agent: Gnus/5.0808 (Gnus v5.8.8) XEmacs/21.4 (Portable Code) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sorry, somehow my prose got lost from that admittedly obscure posting :-( Since the first rxvt 2.7.10 update, I've lost functionality in the following odd way -- my rxvt shortcut, with property C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -e /bin/bash --login -i no longer works -- it launches the window and hangs without ever displaying anything. Typing a character crashes it. This must be some kind of environment issue, since I can run the above just fine from a bash prompt, but so far I can't locate the missing or bad environment variable by random search. I attach a gzipped strace output from a DOS console of the same command. Er, no I don't -- too big. I attach a gzipped truncated (in the middle) strace output. Er, no I don't, it's in the previous message. Any suggestions gratefully accepted. ht -- Henry S.
