Hi, everybody
First of all, this is my first bug report, so I don't know if I am doing correctly... I don't know if one must be registered to summit this type of repport. And be patient with my English.
The problem is that rlwrap has stopped working in combination with:
- Windows 10 (I use version 2004, compilation 19041.685, Spanish). It still works in Windows 8.1 and previous
- rlwrap 0.37-1
- cygwin 3.1.7-1 (Unix emulation engine). The last version that works in WIndows 10 is 3.0.7-1.
- any DOS/Windows command line application (as Oracle sqlplus, Dimensions dmcli, or even Windows cmd)
For example, you can try with DOS/Windows cmd:
rlwrap cmd
It clears the screen and does not work.
As I've said, it works with:
- previous versions of Windows (8.1, 7)
- versions 3.0.7-1 or previous of the cygwin package.
- of course, with cygwin interactive commands (the problem only appears with DOS/Windows command line apps)
Thanks in advance for your great job (I use cygwin for a long time and is an essential part in the Windows computers I use).

Please try:
env CYGWIN=disable_pcon rlwrap cmd
Also, you can use alias like:
alias rlwrap="env CYGWIN=disable_pcon rlwrap"

I had the impression the CYGWIN enviroment was used only by the first
cygwin process to set global behaviour and following changes were
uneffective
Am I missing something ?

If an application changes the CYGWIN environment variable via a call to
setenv(3) or putenv(3), then that variable is re-parsed and the corresponding
global variables (like disable_pcon) are changed accordingly. See the call to
parse_options() at the end of _addenv() in environ.cc.
