Well... even that one is counter intuitive regarding the 'Last login' line. After login into Cygwin sshd, the 'Last login' line is not shown: haubi AT linuxbox ~ $ ssh cygwin2019 ---------------------------------------- > > haubi AT cygwin2019 ~ > $ > > > > > > > ---------------------------------------- When starting cmd, the terminal does loose colors, and the 'Last login' line suddenly is shown as first line: ---------------------------------------- > Last login: Mon Oct 14 12:30:52 2019 from 192.168.56.1 > > haubi AT cygwin2019 ~ > $ cmd > Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.17763.805] > (c) 2018 Microsoft Corporation.

My real problem is more sophisticated, and boils down to the creation of some pty's in a row, each having some commands run inside, and I do expect to see the output of each command while the series runs and when done, much like: ---------------------------------------- > {some output from previous linux commands} > {some output} > {some output} > haubi AT linuxbox ~ $ ssh -t cygwin2016 hostname; hostname; ssh -t cygwin2016 hostname > cygwin2016 > Connection to cygwin2016 closed. > linuxbox > cygwin2016 > Connection to cygwin2016 closed. > haubi AT linuxbox ~ $ ---------------------------------------- And looking at the code actually makes me belive that even emacs does have troubles when the clear screen code is emitted on pty creation...
