Reza,
RXVT has been specially ported for Cygwin and can operate both under
XFree86/Cygwin and "stand-alone" (without an X server).
If the DISPLAY environment variable is set, RXVT will try to connect to the
server it designates. If there's no DISPLAY environment variable, then RXVT
will create
Thank you both for the explanations.
The differnece between a "terminal" (as in cygwin console) and a "terminal
emulator" (as in hyperterm) finally clicked for me.
I am interfacing (using telnet) to an application that expects an ansi
terminal and this is just not possible with the cygwin console.

I see what I was missing.
Chris,
I'm still missing something.
Here's one line from my .inputrc:
"\M-[[A""fg %1\C-M"
This does not interfere with up-arrow doing history selection. It does what
I expect it to: Insert "fg %1".

I will note that it is very weird that F1 - F4 in cygwin are generating

Reza,
The TERM variable is most certainly _not_ broken. You're misunderstanding
what it's for. The TERM variable is how programs that must adapt to
different terminal types (emulators or physical hardware) find out how to
properly drive the terminal's display and respond to characters sent by i

probably unrelated to the topic of the discussion.

Reza,
The terminal emulation model is what it is. There's one for the Cygwin
console window, another for RXVT and yet another for xterm (under
XFree86/Cygwin).
The TERM variable serves to convey the indication of which terminal
emulator is active to software such as Vim, Emacs, programs linked
