> I was unable to find how to use runas from a terminal. runas supply a plentiful help page when started without any parameters. Your problem is probably that you assume the mintty to be the way to go, or sort of a requirement, which it isn't. runas is a windows tool to start applications under different credentials. And as any native tool, it has no concept of pty's, and unlikely to output anything to the mintty. You can overcome this with redirection to an extent, i.e. runas | iconv -f <OEM_encoding> > I can simply type runas and it does nothing and I can't find --help or > /help. I did find a suggestion to use cygstart cygstart is a cygwin analogue for START command. Not the tool for the job. -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@yandex.ru) 19.11.2014, <16:19> Sorry for my terrible english... -- 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
