I dont know if it's this way on NT or not, but, using cut and paste in a bash window, I can copy ( cut is probably the wrong term anyway ) without problems ( no surprise there ) however pasting into a bash window causes it to stop responding.... apparently pasting into the "DOS Box" uses a message which BASH ( or the readline librbary?? ) doesn't handle. I would have thought that maybe windows would just "echo" the keyboard input to it, however this doesn't seem to be the case...... Also, I would like to know if anyone has attempted to make a "true" working xterm, ie.. one that would work as an X client, to be used across the network. I tried however I couldn't find a work around for the lack of pty support in cygwin.dll..... hopefully Cygnus is considering this in a future release???? - For help on using this list, send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
