Correct. The native rxvt was heavily patched, and there was nobody interested in porting it to 64-bit or generally supporting it. Therefore, it was replaced with the ordinary X-based rxvt. The default terminal emulator, mintty, fills that role and then some, and is what you should be using instead if you don't want X11. -- Yaakov -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
