WHY an "xterm setup" if, as I wrote, the problems are present in standard bash shell, i.e. that launched with cygwin.bat. I have reinstalled Cygwin, installing only the BASE category: NO "xterm", NO XORG, NO RXVT. ONLY BASE PACKAGES. The problems are PRESENT in any case!!! thank angelo. -- 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/
