when i use the bourne shell (sh,) the literal characters that are used to form the prompt (i.e., environmental variable $PS1,) which is set in /etc/profile on my system, .are displayed instead. for example, on my windows 2000 professional system, i see the following gibberish:
\[\033]0;\w\007 \033[32m\]\u@\h \[\033[33m\w\033[0m\] $ can something be done to fix this? note: this happens only on sh; no problems in bash, tcsh. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
