  Ahhhh, you meant Windows keyb in autoexec.bat! That thought would never
cross my mind because everything works just fine in every Win98/command.com
application. My problem is specifically with the default cygwin bash window,
so I don't think I'll be messing around with my Windows config for what is
probably a known problem.
  Anyway, if the developers are interested I can gather information about 
my system and mail it. For starters I am using an english Win98 with a
Pt (Portuguese standard) keyboard and a keyb po,,C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\keyboard.sys
line in my autoexec.bat.

  I worked around this problem by using rxvt-2.6PRE2-w32z (updates in 
http://www.io.com/~bub/rxvt.html) and everything works just fine.

  Thanks for your help anyway.

  Best regards,
