I see this with xterm, mintty, and urxvt. I don't see this behavior on Ubuntu, for example. There a Control-Z is ignored. Of course typing Control-Z isn't useful if there's no parent shell to suspend to, but I often do so accidentally. To reproduce, for example: mintty less file.txt then type Control-Z in the mintty terminal. The terminal window goes blank, and can't be closed by clicking the "X" in the window frame. I'm running the Cygwin X server in multiwindow mode: XWin -engine 2 -clipboard -multiwindow -emulate3buttons (I don't remember why I use "-engine 2". I don't *think* it's relevant. I'll try it later without that argument and post again if it makes a difference.) -- 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
