(I can't see what I'm typing.) But it doesn't work! I have to do `unset CYGWIN' and then `reset' (without looking too close, mind you) and then I get my prompt back. `reset' also doesn't clear the screen. (note: reset and tset are part of ncurses). is ncurses incompatible with `CYGWIN=tty'? Is this supposed to happen? > >let me know, > - Daniel J. You might get a better answer with better information given. The results of 'uname -a' or 'cygcheck -s -r -v' for example may be significant. I don't use emacs but I do use 'tty' in my CYGWIN environment variable and have no problems running/using 'reset'.
