I have tried reinstalling the ncurses and the rxvt (with and without "enhanced Unicode) features and am still having problems.
When I go to the /usr/share/libs/ncurses/test directory under by "normal" bash shell and enter ./ncurses everything looks good. However, when I try this under the rxvt "shell", I am having lots of problems. The install (as documented) sets TERM=xterm I have tried a few other TERM settings including TERM=rxvt TERM=rxvt-color TERM=xterm-color and none of those helps. In particular, when under ./ncurses I do "f" for acs characters, nothing shows. I suspect this is a "user error" - but as I did install both ncurses and rxvt right from the Cygwin "setup.exe", I was hoping that someone could point me to the "error of my ways" and/or how to fix this. I am uncertain what "debugging" information to provide. I enter rxvt with the following command: C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -sl 1500 -fn "Lucida Console-16" -bg black -fg grey -sr -e bash --login -i This was suggested by the site at: http://infrablue.tripod.com/cygwin.html and maybe that is the problem. I have attached my cygcheck output, but don't know if that will actually help.
