Something weird is going on with my cygwin. I first noticed it when I ran 'vim' and it said that it did not recognize a terminal type of 'cygwin'. Ok, so I set the TERM environment to "ansi". That seemed to work, but I noticed that the arrow keys to move around with did not work. So then I went and reset the terminal by using the command 'tset'. This came back and said that it did not recognized a terminal of cygwin, or ansi, or anything else. I checked my files and I have ncurses and terminfo installed, and the files for the various terminal definitions are in '/usr/lib/terminfo' right where they are supposed to be.
Then I went to see what the man pages said about this. The man program worked, but it comes back and says "No manual entry for tset", or for any programs. I made sure that I had a good MANPATH, and exported it. Did not help. I have a valid '/etc.man.config' file, and if I start man with the -d option, it echoes out the paths as listed in the '/etc.man.config' file. Even when I specify the man path directory by using 'man -M /usr/man man ', it still says it can not find the man page. My PATH works fine, but who knows what else does not really work. I could really use a little help with this problem. I am running Win 2k all of the cygwin programs are up to date. My shell is bash. Below is the out put from 'cygcheck -s'.
