Welcome to IWETHEY!

New 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?

New Symptoms
RXVT comes up no matter what. 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.
End of world rescheduled for day after tomorrow. Something should probably be done. Please advise.
New Not the only one seeing this.
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.
