Questions[rxvt](server)

With a recent version of CYGWIN (installed yesterday) on Windows 7, we are having a weird problem getting rxvt to work.

We used to use the following batch file:

@echo off

C:
chdir C:\cygwin\bin

rxvt -fn 18x18 -bg black -fg white -g 85x55 -sr -e bash --login -i

To launch rxvt. On our new machines, rxvt starts and immediately terminates.

Using the supplied cygwin shortcut (to lauch bash) and then executing the command:

rxvt -fn 18x18 -bg black -fg white -g 85x55 -sr -e bash --login -i

produces the right result, however.

Any ideas how to make a batch file that will launch rxvt properly? What has changed that is leading to this script (which we have been using for years) to suddenly stop working?

I'm running msys 1.0 on Win2K using the rxvt.exe terminal. By default, tab-completion works, but when I do 'set -o vi' to enable vi-readline editing, tab-completion stops working. Surely I can have my cake and eat it too?

I currently use Cygwin and rxvt as my default terminal environment running bash. I would like to be able to scroll in the output window using the mouse wheel. Is this possible?

I realize there are (at least) two different use cases for this:

1) Scrolling in the scrollback buffer while in terminal/input mode (same as sliding the scrollbar on the window itself).

2) Scrolling in programs such as man and less, where using the up/down arrow keys.

Any solution to either cases are welcome.

Update I just realized case 1) is not relevant. This already works. :)
