Hi all, I think there's a bug with cpan and names containing spaces.
E.g., my username is Joe Schmoe, and I get:
>>>
$ cpan Error
CPAN: Storable loaded ok
Going to read /home/Joe Schmoe/.cpan/Metadata

This is a strange bug. Apparently, every time I enter/leave the screen
between my Windows XP server and client, if rxvt is the foreground
window, then a character on the terminal gets backspaced! It happens
in no other applications, and it isn't a problem with the shell (it
happens when I run the c
I upgraded Cygwin, as advised, but it still didn't work. Since then
I've been using cmd. However, today I discovered the solution: for
some reason, I have to specify /bin/bash or /usr/bin/bash instead of
bash. This is strange, because bash exists nowhere else in my PATH
(only /bin/bash and /usr/bin
I'm setting up Cygwin. I downloaded files to one machine, and I want
to install over the network to another machine (I don't have enough
space for both the pre- and post-install files on the target machine).
However, when I run setup on the other machine, as soon as it starts
copying files, I get t

Cygwin has been working fine for about a year, until a few days ago
when I started seeing this problem. When I run rxvt -e bash (or bash
--login -i, or sh, or anything at all), rxvt appears for about 0.1
seconds and then immediately exits (the process disappears). However,
running bash from cmd/exp

Hi all, whenever I ssh into a remote host (I've only tried Linux boxes),
man pages always get messed up. This has been an issue for me for a
while, but it's not specific to Cygwin. I've tried the cmd, rxvt, and

Can I prevent rxvt from scrolling to the bottom whenever there's new
output? If so, how? Thanks in advance.

I would like to disconnect an SSH session. My sshd is set up as a
Windows service (with the help of cygrunsrv). I am also currently logged
in via SSH, so I'd like to kill another specific SSH session (I know
where I'm logged in from). 'w' shows the two connections - my current

There are some cmd shell programs that don't run well in rxvt. Most
noticeably, they don't always immediately write out their output. They
seem to work fine in the default cmd window though (doesn't matter if
it's in cmd or in bash). Does anybody know what the problem is here, and
how to fix it
