http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2017-04/msg00297.html to any who might have used this solution - i discovered a bad side effect when searching man pages, if you use the "/" operator - the first matching line is removed, and you are brought to the following line - then if you try to scroll up - the previous lines are there but not the matching line subsequent matching lines are shown as expected - this is for my custom terminal above and any terminal using "xenl" - not sure what a workaround for this is other than dont use "xenl" and deal with the missing column per the original issue. -- 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
