Also, if advice given by someone on the Cygwin list helped you, it's usually a good idea to post a followup to the list stating this, just to bring things to a closure, so that others searching the archives will see what worked and what didn't. Hence, I'm directing this reply to the Cygwin list. On Thu, 8 Jan 2004, H. James de St. Germain wrote: > thanks for the info about rxvt. Sure.

They probably all use vi. :-) Or emacs in rxvt or xterm. In other words, bugs don't get fixed until someone's motivated enough to fix them. You can still try to submit a patch (after testing it, of course, and filling out the copyright assignment -- see ). > anyway, again i appreciate your response and the nice work > around. > > cheers > jim Glad I could help.
