Hi,
I am in a fix. My arrow keys (left, right, up, down, Alt-F, Alt-B,
Ctrl-P, Ctrl-N ) do not work.
What should I do? I tried looking on the net, but there is no clear way out.
Then I opened cygiwn (c:\cygwin\cygwin.bat).
I did the following:
cygcheck -k
Left Arrow - Pressed 1x VK: 0x25 VS: 0x4b A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- --
-- -- -- -- --
Released 1x VK: 0x25 VS: 0x4b A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- -- -- -- -- -- --
Right Arrow - Pressed 1x VK: 0x27 VS: 0x4d A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- --
-- -- -- -- --
Released 1x VK: 0x27 VS: 0x4d A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- -- -- -- -- -- --
Up Arrow - Pressed 1x VK: 0x26 VS: 0x48 A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- -- --
-- -- -- --
Released 1x VK: 0x26 VS: 0x48 A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- -- -- -- -- -- --
Down Arrow - Pressed 1x VK: 0x28 VS: 0x50 A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- --
-- -- -- -- --
Released 1x VK: 0x28 VS: 0x50 A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- -- -- -- -- -- --
Then I pressed Ctrl-V Left Arrow, Ctrl-V Right Arrow, Ctrl-V Up Arrow,
Ctrl-V Bottom Arrow and I get:
^[[D^[[C^[[A^[[B
What should I do? I expect that the keys should work out of box.
Regards,
Ajay.

Nothing above illustrates the arror keys not working.
Please follow the instructions here:
http://cygwin.com/problems.html
We will need cygcheck output but you also need to consider that we don't
know what you mean by "do not work".
As a wild guess, however, it sounds like you have improperly set your
TERM environment variable.
