I once compiled fish on cygwin. I think that I had to mess around with curses too. But I can't remember the details. I got it working but had a lot of trouble with the "..." character being corrupted in the terminal, and the terminal getting corrupted/garbled when repainting etc. I tried all sorts of combinations of rxvt and xterm, and $LANG etc but I couldn't work it out. I can post a list of the things I tried if that interests anyone. cheers, -- Simon Edwards | KDE-NL, Guidance tools, Guarddog Firewall [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.simonzone.com/software/ Nijmegen, The Netherlands | "ZooTV?
