I'm able to reproduce this without bash, and with xterm instead of rxvt. That narrows the problem down to some changes I made to the cygwin tty code. The change I suspect is one that writes characters one at a time to the slave, instead of a bulk write of the entire buffer. Thus, it's possible for the slave to read half of an escape sequence in a race condition. I was under the impression that the slave, mc in this case, should be able to deal with this condition, or am I mistaken? Thanks for pointing out this test case. -steve -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
