It would be best if you could send the output of cygcheck -s -v -r and cygcheck vi. I'll make a couple of guesses as to your problem: 1. You're using a non-Cygwin version of vi. Vim has been ported to Cygwin and works like a champ. I use it all the time in a console window and have no resizing issues. 2. You're working on 9x platforms, which has poor console support. There are various ways to address this, including using rxvt or consize, both available from Chuck Wilson's CygUtils site (http://cygutils.netpedia.net/index.html) You may also want to check out the FAQ, mail archives, and available ported software, all of which you can find at www.cygwin.com.
