Hi Damjan. There's information about this in /usr/share/doc/screen/README.Cygwin. Read that, but the short version is that all features of screen are supposed to work correctly in a DOS console with CYGWIN=tty (set before you open the console), and in rxvt, PuTTYcyg, and xterm. I'm not sure about an ssh session. In fact though, I've had some trouble reattaching to old sessions (I use PuTTYcyg), but it's nothing I've ever been able to pin down. The older the sessions get, the more likely they are to be bad and then I have to -wipe them, and manually kill any of their child processes. Please keep posting test reports about screen so I can try to figure out what's going on. Thanks, Andrew. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
