Steve, No ideas here. I'm guessing it is a problem with xterm. You can also, I think, run the latest version of Cygwin's 'rxvt' as an X Client. Note: rxvt is including with the Cygwin distribution, not with the Cygwin/XFree86 tarballs.
I'd give rxvt a shot and see what happens. Report back when finished. Harold > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Steven T.
