Dear allmydata.org folks (especially RobK and Arno -- my fellow Windows users) and darcs folks:

Have you seen this page?

http://wiki.darcs.net/DarcsWiki/WindowsConsoles

I've been running all this time with rxvt.exe, bash, and with CYGWIN="codepage:oem tty binmode title".

I always have the problem of C-c leaving a lock file behind and the problem of having to hit enter after each command, but as far as I know I don't have any other problems, so I'm slightly skeptical about the "worse things could happen" part.

The page is confused by suggesting that rxvt and bash are alternatives. In fact one is a terminal emulator and one is a shell so if you're using rxvt then you're also using bash. (As I am.)

I intend to update that page (and to link to it from the Windows Configuration page [1]) after I figure out what it should say. Actually I think I should just delete that page and integrate its contents into WindowsConfiguration (and leave a forward link from WindowsConsoles to WindowsConfiguration).
