RE: Control the cygwin terminal with escape sequences

Philippe, FYI, I just tried your command with ActiveState perl, and it works too, provided you have "tty" in your CYGWIN environment variable. Igor On Tue, 4 Mar 2003, Igor Pechtchanski wrote: > Philippe, > > First off, there is no need to send the message directly to me -- I read > the

RE: Control the cygwin terminal with escape sequences

Philippe, First off, there is no need to send the message directly to me -- I read the list. Hence the "Reply-To". Secondly, I used the exact line you quoted in your message (perl -e 'print "\033[H\033[J"'). It worked. The only difference I can see is that you use ActiveState's perl, whereas I

Setup sugestion/annoyance

Hi. When will the Cygwin's setup have a option to maximize and/or resize the window of the setup itself? It's very anoying to scroll the bars all the time, and there are 2, the vertical and the horizontal ones! Please fix this. Santos -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe

Re: "hostname" takes 3.5 seconds
