[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: rxvt-2.7.10-6
I've fixed the double +/- when using the +/- on the keypad. Note that shift-keypad-plus and shift-keypad-minus may be used to change font size. rxvt is in the 'Shells' section of the installer. It works with or without X Windows running and is a comfy replacement for the cmd window. Quick start: rxvt -e /bin/bash --login More documentation may be found in: /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/rxvt-2.7.10.README === To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.

RE: rxvt with libW11 bug: doubled KP_Subtract and KP_Add
Hi, I never noticed the double ++ and --, but it happens for me too. Removing the code to handle KP_Add and KP_Subtract (as the patch suggests) may end up breaking the shift+ shift- font changer. -steve Christopher Faylor wrote: Hi, Did you see this?

To reproduce try run mc > and press the arrow keys in blue mc's window (for moving cursor through > files or moving cursor left-right in command line). I'm able to reproduce this without bash, and with xterm instead of rxvt. That narrows the problem down to some changes I made to the cygwin tty code. The change I suspect is one that writes characters one at a time to the slave, instead of a bulk write of the entire buffer. Thus, it's possible for the slave to read half of an escape sequence in a race condition. I was under the impression that the slave, mc in this case, should be able to deal with this condition, or am I mistaken? Thanks for pointing out this test case. -steve -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Hi, Just got back from holiday and followed your fix trajectory for this. Nice. Removing always_accept may remove the requirement for the post-loop setting of ret to line_edit_input_done. I'll have to stare at it some more though. As for the placement of doecho, it was moved after accept_input since doecho is not undoable. So, if accept_input fails repeatedly, the current code could echo a character multiple times. However, given the circumstances, I agree that moving doecho back is the correct thing to do in the short term. My next set of patches should remedy this by adding an echobuf that will essentially make echo characters be read before the slave input. Undoubtedly, someone will find a case where this isn't correct, but for now I can't think of what that case may be. Thank you, cgf, for taking time out of your holidays to look at this. -steve -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Re: Bug in rxvt 2.7.2: shift-pageup/pagedown ignored with -sk option
> Hum... I can not only confirm this one, but also get a > reproducible crash if I press Ctrl+Left at the end of a line. Hi, I tracked down the -sk problem last night, it happens because XLookupString is only trivially implemented and returns 1 all the time. As for the Ctrl-Left, this is something odd in bash. I can get the same behavior in a command window running bash, or even by typing Esc O c. Bash running on Linux does not seem to have this problem. -steve -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Re: New rxvt -- cleartype bug again
Hi, Yep, the new rxvt (-12) doesn't do so well with clear type. I tracked through the code and figured out why. Looks like windows erases a little bit more background than it should when writing text in opaque mode. Changed the XDrawString code to use transparent mode and to manually do the background erasing. I'm concerned about the pasting from other windows crashing rxvt and would like to hold off making another release until I can figure that out. In the meantime, I recommend using the -11 version if ClearType is an issue. The pasting issue appears to only affect NT systems, the only platform I don't have ready access to. -steve -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: rxvt-2.7.2-8
rxvt-2.7.2-8 has been uploaded to the Cygwin net distribution. rxvt is a lightweight xterm that can display to either X or native Windows. Changes: - Corrected backspace handling. This may cause some unexpected behavior if you have something like stty erase ^H in your profile. Either removing the stty line or changing it to stty erase ^? may fix the behavior. - Bug in erasing fixed. Previous versions erased too much, causing visual artifacts. - Built with transparency enabled. This is bare bones support. If you have Win2K with a tiled BMP background (i.e. no active desktop), rxvt -ip may work.
