I missed to tell that I'm talking about terminfo on Linux and now that
I compare terminfo entries on different Linux distros, I see that they
disagree about the rxvt settings:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4:
$ rpm -qf /usr/share/terminfo/r/rxvt-basic
ncurses-5.4-13
$ infocmp -I rxvt-basic | grep 'cu[bfu]1'
cub1=^H, cnorm=\E[?25h, cuf1=\E[C, cuu1=\E[A, dch1=\E[P,
kcub1=\E[D, kmous=\E[M, knp=\E[6~, kpp=\E[5~, kcuf1=\E[C,
OpenSuSE 10.2:
$ rpm -qf /usr/share/terminfo/r/rxvt-basic
terminfo-5.5-42
$ infocmp -I rxvt-basic | grep 'cu[bfu]1'
cub1=^H, cnorm=\E[?25h, cuf1=\E[C, cuu1=\E[A,
kich1=\E[2~, kcub1=\EOD, kmous=\E[M, knp=\E[6~, kpp=\E[5~,
kcuf1=\EOC, kDC=\E[3$, kslt=\E[4~, kEND=\E[8$, kHOM=\E[7$,
kLFT=\E[d, kNXT=\E[6$, kPRV=\E[5$, kRIT=\E[c, kcuu1=\EOA,
#2) For termcap, the arrow key spellings are:
kd=\E[B ku=\E[A kl=\E[D kr=\E[C
Same picture here:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4:
$ rpm -qf /etc/termcap
termcap-5.4-3
The termcap entry for rxvt-basic has
kd=\E[B ku=\E[A kl=\E[D kr=\E[C
OpenSuSE 10.2:
$ rpm -qf /etc/termcap
ncurses-5.5-42
The termcap entry for rxvt-basic has
kd=\EOB ku=\EOA kl=\EOD kr=\EOC
So again, I don't see where you're getting ESC O A from that. Are you
sure your installed termcap and terminfo files haven't been corrupted?
Unfortunately I was playing with the OpenSuSE installation while
debugging rxvt, and I only tested Cygwin's rxvt against the SuSE box.
Apparently the termcap/terminfo entries (same as above for the other
rxvt entries) are broken on SuSE. Weird. That should be a lesson to
me, I guess...
I really believe The Right Thing To Do is to ensure /etc/termcap and
and/usr/share/terminfo/ are up to date, rather than make rxvt's terminal
handling on cygwin different than on all other platforms.
Yes, I agree.
But even there, IF you have plain old 'rxvt' in your termcap, that's
usually good enough unless you're a stickler for line art characters.
rxvt's TERM setting defaults to xterm only because it will almost ALWAYS
be present, and will *mostly* work.
It doesn't have to do with line art. If cursor and home/end keys don't
work, you have, for instance, problems moving in mutt's menus.
Comments?
I was working under the premise that different Linux distros wouldn't
differ in such essential details. Oh well...

rxvt package default TERM value [Was: RXVT doesn't recognize ALT + Cursor keys]
Corinna Vinschen wrote: Works fine, including all keys I'm used to after I replaced the rxvt entries on the affected Linux system. So, any opinions on what value rxvt should give for TERM, when the user has not specified a value[*]. Existing behavior on cygwin (and most other platforms) is to report 'xterm'. rxvt-20050409-5 test release reports 'rxvt'. -- Chuck [*] there are five ways to specify the desired TERM value -- or any resource setting -- from highest priority down to lowest): (1) command line argument: -tn (2) ~/.Xdefaults or ~/.Xresources contains [**] (a) prog*termName where prog is the invocation name of the application (usually rxvt all lowercase) (b) Rxvt*termName (3) /etc/X11/app-defaults/Rxvt contains Rxvt*termName [***] (4) /etc/X11/app-defaults/Rxvt contains *termName (5) ~/.Xdefaults or ~/.Xresources contains (a) XTerm*termName (b) *termName [**] cygwin's rxvt explicitly parses these files manually. It does not access the xserver's resources database, even in X11 mode. (The opposite behavior can be obtained by modified some macros in src/feature.h and src/rxvt.h, and recompiling). [***] could be /etc/X11/locale/locale/app-defaults/Rxvt if locale is set to something, but this is untested given cygwin's (newlib's) lack of support for true locales.

Re: Adding fonts
It's a little more work, but it might be better to add the Windows fonts directory to the X font path. Then you only store the actual fonts in one place on disk, and all the system TTF fonts are available to X. You'd need to create the X11 font management metafiles in the system fonts dir, but Windows will just ignore them. You'd also need to update them whenever you add new fonts . . . or schedule a job to check periodically. On 8/21/07, S James S Stapleton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yes.

Anyway, since the symlink was created without pointing to the .exe extension, tar is thus getting confused between touching bash.exe and creating bash with no extension. This seems like a corner case, so I'm not sure how much time I will spend trying to work around it, but thanks for reporting it. On the other hand, since tar files created on platforms without .exe suffixes are likely to look like this, maybe I should at least investigate making tar smarter about extraction of links. Is that an old style cygwin snybolic link? If so how do I identify all of them, so I might update them on my system? No, it is not an old-style link, because it has the .lnk suffix when viewed via Windows. However, it is not a link that would normally be created by the current coreutils, since I have added some .exe magic into ln when symlinking against existing .exes: $ ln -s /bin/bash bash2 $ readlink bash2 /bin/bash.exe Therefore, if you are worried about the existence of symlinks whose contents leave out the .exe suffix, you could do something like the following to find candidate links that might need correction: $ find [directory] -maxdepth 1 -type l \( -lname '*[^.][^e][^x][^e]' -o - -lname '???' -o -lname '??' -o -lname '?' \) -print Beyond that, there are probably ways to automate replacing the broken contents of such links with automatic .exe suffixes where appropriate, once you realize that this idiom will make the conversion: $ ln -fs $(readlink ./bash2) ./bash2 Cleanup.., how to delete the zero byte '/bin/bash': /tmp/ZZ $ (cd /bin ; chmod 777 bash;cmd /c del bash; ls -l bash) Yuck. Why rely on cmd? It is simpler to 'rm bash', which will delete the non-suffix version without touching the .exe version. Also, it is not necessary to chmod 777 the empty file; you can delete files with 0 permissions (although you may have to answer an interactive question to do so). - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!

A problem with setup.exe (?)
I have observed this problem with setup.exe 2.575, 2.573.2.2 and 2.578 (but, perhaps it is not a stricly setup problem). Usually when one has some experimental package installed, setup, while installing some other package, tries to reinstall the 'Cur' package. So one should click to keep the exp. package. And this is OK. This morning I forgot this and setup started to reinstall the cur. version of libtool package. When I see this I clicked the 'Cancel' button to break the reinstall. This has caused a corrupted lst.gz file (libtool1.5.lst.gz): trying to gunzip manually: unexpected end of file When I have tried to reinstall the package (to be sure that all was OK), choosing 'Reinstall', there was the error window: An error occured in setup-2.573.2.2 Falag the error to Microsoft.. ... Yes/NO ... and setup hanged. After many tries, the solution has been to remove the corrupted lst.gz file and then reinstalling. So the question is: Should setup give a warning that the lst.gz file was corrupted, suggesting to remove it? But perhaps, the simplest solution should be to remove the 'Cancel' button from setup...

I have to run strace app to see the same error I used to see without strace. Run the problematic application under cmd to get the missing-entry-point/missing-dll popup box. When run by a cygwin application (such as bash), the error is intentionally squelched by cygwin1.dll and treated instead as exit status 53, because it is annoying to have a non-interactive script file block while waiting for an interactive user to dismiss a modal popup box. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated [experimental]: coreutils-6.9-5
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 A new release of coreutils, 6.9-5, is available for experimental use, leaving 6.9-4 as current. NEWS: = This is a minor patch release. It attempts to add some case-insensitivity smarts to mv, cp, and install. In other words, 'mv a A' should now cause the file to be renamed, rather than reporting an error, if 'a' and 'A' happen to be case-insensitive synonyms for the same file. I've tested this with disk files, virtual files (such as /proc), and managed mounts, but not with CYGWIN=check_case. Also, because it is a big enough patch, I am leaving this as an experimental release for a while longer in case some regressions turn up. See also the upstream documentation in /usr/share/doc/coreutils-6.9/. DESCRIPTION: GNU coreutils provides a collection of commonly used utilities essential to a standard POSIX environment. It comprises the former textutils, sh-utils, and fileutils packages.

Are you planning to submit the patch upstream? My patch turned out to be more invasive than I would have liked. Also, there have been upstream discussions on the problem (since Mac HFS, and even Linux mounts to FAT, are also affected). The biggest problem is that my patch uses sys/cygwin.h, which is NOT portable - there really is no good way (at the moment) across all three platforms to tell if a directory is case-insensitive. It would be nice if there was a pathconf(directory, _PC_CASE_INSENSITIVE) that could quickly be queried to see if case-insensitivity is even worth worrying about for the directory in question. Also brought up on the coreutils list is the problem that the kernel's notion of file system case-insensitivity may be different from the current locale's definition of case-insensitivity (not really an issue for cygwin so long as we don't really support locales, but definitely an issue for Linux and Mac). - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
