HI,
A few days ago I decided to try out v1.1.3; I'd been using the CD v1.0
version for some time. The installation with setup went flawlessly and
I started adding some of the other packages I wanted.
The main problem I've been having has been the terminal control is not
working well, at all. When I vi a file, the contents are interspersed with
whatever text was on the screen. In bash, the /bin/clear comand or the
equivalent escape sequence moves the cursor to the top of the window
and generally does not clear any lines, though sometimes as many as
the first 8 lines are cleared. I use a console window setup for 120 width
by 50 lines with 100 screens of buffering., just as I had been with v1.0.
I've tried CYGWIN=tty and CYGWIN=notty, I've tried TERM=cygwin,
or ansi or linux, as well as various others. I downloaded and built the
ncurses-5.1 package (no problems) and installed it. /usr/local/bin/clear
works a little better than /bin/clear. It moves the cursor to the top of the
window and clears the first 25 lines. Since I configured and built the
ncurses package with --enable-termcap, I created a modified 'cygwin'
entry in /etc/termcap - cygwin120x50, with co#120:li#50 . But, that
didn't help. (By the way, what is the "op=\#[39;49m" entry? As far as
I can tell 'op=' isn't a valid code.)
I ran captoinfo and then tic to create a new terminfo entry for my
cygwin120x50 definition, but that didn't help. Frankly, I'm stumped
at this point. Can anyone suggest some other things for me to look
at?
Regards,
Doug Wyatt
