Close, but it doesn't quite work as you state. Anyone have any other clues?
---------------- I have found a workaround. Just change your rxvt line to read: rxvt -geometry 80x60 -e cmd /c c:\cygwin\bin\bash --login -i This is assuming you're running 2000, ME, or XP. I don't know about 9x. You can look for a command.com option that does the same thing as /c for cmd.exe. (Runs a command and then exits.) The only side effect to this method is a warning message at the top of the rxvt window reading: readline: warning: rl_prep_terminal: cannot get terminal settings Since calling bash from cmd works, it would appear to be an issue with how rxvt is calling bash, but I'm afraid that I don't really know how to track this down any further. Hopefully it'll be of help to someone who is a bit more knowledgeable in the subject. Hope this helps. -Alex Malinovich On Sun, 2002-02-03 at 12:42, Michael F.
