rxvt 2.6.2 (or 2.7.2) for win32 seems to behave fairly well with bash,
but not so well with tcsh (vinschen's version).  I have the following
cygwin.bat:

SET MAKE_MODE=unix
SET CYGWIN=tty
SET PATH=.;d:\cygwin\bin;d:\cygwin\usr\bin;d:\cygwin\usr\local\bin;%PATH%
REM tcsh
rxvt-2.6.2.exe -fn "Lucida Console-12" -e bash

which works fine with bash, but when i replace bash with tcsh, i run into
problems immediately.  For instance, if, after starting up, I resize
the window, then type 'ls', the prompt never comes back.  Also, each time I
do a resize, the prompt is printed again (ie, an extra time).

I am running on a win98se machine with cygwin 1.1.2, tcsh 6.08, and rxvt 2.6.2
(and have tried 2.7.2).  Tcsh seems to work quite well in the dos box, but
not in rxvt.

Have others run into this problem, or does everyone just use bash?

thanks,
h

(btw, the problem seems win98 specific since I don't encounter it on my nt 4.0
machine)
