Hi, about gobbledegook

Looking into imports of cygwin's shot.exe I can see "cygncursesw-10.dll".

Does that mean it is "using a package which knows how to send them"?

Checking for environment
$ set | grep TERM
TERM=xterm

Ok?

But sh.exe is using Windows console API instead of writing ANSI to stdout.

What is wrong?

regards
