Here are steps to reproduce the problem.
1. Open cygwin terminal.
2. Type "info info" to display info page about GNU texinfo.
3. Press C-n (CTRL + n) to move the cursor
Expected result: C-n key combination moves the cursor one line down.
Actual result: An error message about unknown command is displayed.
"Unknown command (C-n)."
This malicious behavior isn't reproducible on Ubuntu version of GNU
texinfo. Tested on 14.04.1 with latest updates.
This is actually an upstream bug, which was fixed almost a year ago:
http://svn.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/trunk/info/infomap.c?root=texinfo&r1=5338&r2=5387
The fix is trivial and was incorporated into the Ubuntu package.
Unfortunately, Cygwin's Texinfo package currently lacks a maintainer.
