If you want to invoke it with command.com, use the following as your shortcut (all one line): `C:\\cygwin\\bin\\rxvt.exe -bg grey15 -fg gold -cr slateblue -fn 12x15 -e /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32/command.com` Works for me™. Set your scrollback buffer with the `-sl` command line option. 10k lines should be sufficient, no? -- Karsten M.

My shortcut: c:\\cygwin\\bin\\rxvt.exe -sl 10000 -e /cygdrive/c/command.com Any thoughts? End of world rescheduled for day after tomorrow. Something should probably be done. Please advise.
Post #54,804 by kmself 10/3/02 10:17:25 PM Reply	Try breaking it apart. What happens if you fire up rxvt by its lonesome, then launch `command.com` from within it? I'd try putting the pieces together first, and seeing where things break. Does rxvt work by itself? -- Karsten M.

If I start it with the above command, I get: Microsoft (R) Windows 98 (C)Copyright Microsoft Corp 1981-1999. C:\\cygwin\\bin> [cursor] Then, if I type something and hit enter, there is a slight pause, and it's echoed back to the console on the next line. Nothing else happens. If I just invoke rxvt on it's own, then type the following at the $ prompt: /cygdrive/c/command.com Then I get the following error message: SH caused an invalid page fault in module KERNEL32.DLL at 0167:bff7d762. (along with some registers) and it does the exact same thing as if I'd invoked the whole kit with the command line. Oh, and if I exit out, I get a hung winoldap process.

See [link\|http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-02/msg00114.html\|here.] Looks like a problem with the most recent version of Cygwin and all .com files under 9x. Sigh. Actually, I don't need the scrollback buffer for a console - just Cygwin itself. If I can get a Cygwin shell, I'm good to go... And I'm good to go. :) Groovy.

It can be used like that... `greg - Grand-Master Artist in IT, curley95@attbi.com -- [link\|http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry/\|REMEMBER ED CURRY!!!] Your friendly Homeland Security Officer reminds: Hold Thumbprint to Screen for 5 seconds, we'll take the imprint, or Just continue to type on your keyboard, and we'll just sample your DNA.`

Post #54,839 by deSitter 10/4/02 8:39:56 AM Reply	Hey K ..how much Cygwin do I need to run that, and where do I get it? -drl
Post #54,864 by inthane-chan 10/4/02 11:00:33 AM Reply	Can answer part two: [link\|http://www.cygwin.com\|http://www.cygwin.com] How much Cygwin do you need? No idea. Can't be all that much - as near as I can tell, the installation process resolves all dependancies, so I don't think it's that much... End of world rescheduled for day after tomorrow.
