problems getting tty's to work with coolview on win95

[bcboy]

Hi all. With the latest coolview installed on win95, I get odd
results trying to get the tty code to work.

I start a msdos shell, run bash, then do
CYGWIN_TTY=1
export CYGWIN_TTY

Now if I do a "ps", the tty still shows up as -1. The only change
I can tell is if I now try to start another bash, it fails, like so:

/home/bcboy> bash
/home/bcboy> exit
/home/bcoby> 

(note I didn't type "exit"). Also terminal handling in less seems to
be messed up after setting CYGWIN_TTY.

Is there something obvious I'm doing wrong?

b.c.
