That will only be recognized on systems with a recent terminfo, Linux mostly. I change it to rxvt since I use Solaris most of the time, and it doesn't recognize cygwin or any derivatives (of course I could modify terminfo). > Details to my vi-problem: > When I press Enter after "vi /etc/resolv.conf" it needs around 4 seconds to > open > the vi-Editor on a multicore-machine... when I connect to the same machine > using > putty or ssh in the basic-bash-console instead of the cygwin-ssh-client in a > rxvt-terminal there is no noticeable delay between pressing Enter and > appearing > the vi-screen. > > Any hints? With a Windows console TERM is set to cygwin, which explains the other answer you found. The problem is not on Cygwin, but on the other end, whatever it is... as I said, I don't see the problem with either Solaris or Linux (several versions of both). A workaround could be to use vim (which is the usual vi on Linux) or any of the other variants of vi. A solution depends on what the real problem is, vim has options to not load plugins (which many times are a PITA), not use .vimrc, and to change the terminal type; I would use those to see if the problem is caused by any of those 3. -- René Berber -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
