From: bob DOT mcgowan AT artecon DOT com (Bob McGowan) Subject: RE: No interaction with bash? 28 May 1998 03:20:50 -0700 Message-ID: <8B40B8756FA1D111BCB900A02495E24F36B4A7.cygnus.gnu-win32@neptune.xstor.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain To: "'gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com'" I'd suggest checking out the CYGWIN32 variable values. I found that WinNT tools like ftp and native mode vim were not working, in the same way you describe. Setting the value 'notty' fixed this for me. Note that I am not yet running the latest (Coolview, etc.) and there may be other issues than the above. --- Bob McGowan i'm: bob dot mcgowan at artecon dot com > -----Original Message----- > From: Andy_Lord AT tertio DOT com [mailto:Andy_Lord AT tertio DOT com] > Sent: Tuesday, May 26, 1998 2:28 AM > To: gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com > Subject: No interaction with bash? > > > > > > > I've look in the FAQ and a brief tour in the mailing lists. > Its probably > there but needs to be "in my face" a bit more ;-). > Andway - If I run a "certain" program from cmd.exe it works > fine.
