First-time users might think that the MS-DOS terminal is as good as it gets, and this is not good for Cygwin. Others still have to figure out how to start Rxvt automatically and how to configure it to look pretty. Also, it would be neat to be able to keep Cygwin up-to-date automatically. -- 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/
