I have tried the man page on rxvt and get this: $ man rxvt Formatting page, please wait... Error executing formatting or display command. System command (cd /usr/man ; (echo -e ".pl 1100i"; cat /usr/man/man1/rxvt.1; echo ".pl \n(nlu+10") | /usr/bin/tbl | /usr/bin/groff -Tascii -mandoc | gzip > /usr/man/cat1/rxvt.1.gz) exited with status 32512. (Any suggestions as to why this might occur? I have tbl, groff, gzip, and less installed.) So, I tried this: /usr/bin/groff -Tascii -mandoc /usr/man/man1/rxvt.1 | less and was able to read the man page. Just running rxvt from the cygwin/bash prompt produces a fast fleeting window of some sort. I then tried this: $ rxvt -bg black -fg white -e /bin/bash (You should have seen the grin.) I think I am on my way. I will pay more attention to the rxvt emails from now on. Thank you again, Brent -----Original Message----- From: Igor Pechtchanski [mailto:pechtcha@cs.nyu.edu] Sent: Wednesday, September 18, 2002 10:45 AM To: Crittenden David-QDC001 Cc: cygwin@cygwin.com Subject: Re: scrolling through buffer in cygwin.bat shell On Wed, 18 Sep 2002, Crittenden David-QDC001 wrote: > All, > > Is is possible to map the keys shift-page up and shift-page down to scroll > through the buffer of the cygwin shell? > > I have seen references to the rxvt app on the mailing lists, but I think > this is used with an xserver. > > I am running cygwin on w2k with cygwin version 1.3.12-4. > > Thank you in advance, > > Brent Crittenden Unlike xterm, rxvt can run under both X11 and MS Windows.
