Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII X-IsSubscribed: yes Hi, I've set up Cygwin on XP (now running on a non-admin account) with CYGWIN=tty. I've struggled to find documentation on what happens when CYGWIN=tty, apart from that it's more Unix-compatible. Is there any? I'm guessing that Cygwin is doing some terminal emulation rather than just using cmd.exe, but wonder if it's possible to make use of key combinations such as C-rightarrow, C-home etc., or to send nulls (C-@). Could someone point me in the right direction? If CYGWIN=tty isn't flexible enough to do this, my preferred option is to use a terminal emulator (SecureCRT) running on the same machine; of course, that involves using telnetd or sshd. Is there any documentation on how to get this set up - particularly when using a non-admin account? Thanks, Nikhil. -- 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/
