I've been using rxvt and rlogin (through a VPN) on a Windows laptop
at home to connect to a computer running Linux at work. To help
with that I have a shortcut on my Desktop that contains this Target:
C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe /bin/rxvt --geometry =157x49+0+0 --backspacekey ^H -T
lnxcomp1 -e /bin/rlogin lnxcomp1
After connecting to the remote computer, I execute screen on it.
Now that I'm starting to use mintty instead of rxvt, I created a
similar shortcut for mintty:
C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe /bin/mintty --size=157,49 --position=0,0
--title=lnxcomp1 -e /bin/rlogin lnxcomp1
This much works fine. When I execute screen, however, the mintty
window immediately shrinks from 157x49 to 80x49. This shrinking
does not occur if I maximize the mintty window before executing
screen.
Does anyone know what might be going on here and how to fix or work
around it?
On the laptop, I'm running mintty 0.5.8 and Cygwin 1.7.1(0.218/5/3).
On the remote Linux machine, screen is "Screen version 4.00.02 (FAU)
5-Dec-03".
Regards,
Gary
