Please try the updated fish 2.1.1 package I just posted, and see if it fixes those problems for you. Exit all running fish shells, then run: wget http://home.comcast.net/~andrex2/cygwin/$(arch)/fish-2.1.1-1.tar.xz tar -Jx -C/ -f fish-2.1.1-1.tar.xz Then try starting fish as a login shell. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
