Hello,

   I'm also using pine via cygwin/ssh and am getting strange display
behaviour when colours are used.  Is there a solution to this problem?  In
the meantime, I'll try to come up with a script that detects whether the
term type is cygwin and run pine with no colour in that case.

		TIA

		Marc
