Re: failure to install x server
I have installed cygwin, however I have a problem making the x server work. Each time I start it with startxwin.bat, it gives me an error and closes down. Are there possible explanations? What error are you getting?

When I try to execute the mount, I get:
$ mount -b -u "$TEMP" /tmp
mount: /tmp: Invalid argument
Is there something I'm missing?
Thanx!

Re: Xwindow does not start
I am seeing some issues, with XWin in cygwin, it does not start: Fatal server error: Cannot open log file "/tmp/XWin.log" At a guess the permissions on /tmp/XWin.log do not allow you to write to it. Change the permissions and you should be fine.

Re: Keycodes and rxvt-unicode
yes - they're documented (in rxvt's source, there's a doc or docs directory containing the file). I added some comments to terminfo.src in ncurses which covers much of that: Thanx for providing that. I did some Googling and came up with this link: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/vim/message/66414 Using the 1 line c code listed there, I used it to determine the escape sequence for Ctrl-PageUp and Ctrl-PageDown and added the following to my .vimrc: nmap[5^ nmap[6^ nnoremap :bn! nnoremap :bp! and now everything works as expected. Cheers!

Re: Keycodes and rxvt-unicode
rxvt (and derived things such as Eterm, aterm, wterm, urxvt) use a different escape sequence for modifiers with function-keys. Is it possible to determine what these escape sequences are? I assume once they are determined I should add them to my .inputrc?

Keycodes and rxvt-unicode
I'm having a bit of a problem with urxvt and key-codes with vim. I have key-map setup such that Control-PageUp / PageDown switch between buffers (bp / bn). This key-mapping works fine under and xterm, but just rings the system bell under urxvt. The odd thing is that Ctrl and PageUp/PageDown work separately just fine, it's just when I try to use them together. Does anybody have any ideas? Thanx!
