Thanks for the response Igor! >> Hi, when my cygwin terminals are sized to something other than 24 rows > I'm assuming you're talking about the command windows running bash.
It happens whether running a command window with bash or running an xterm; the fact that it happens in and out of xfree made me wonder if it was a cygwin issue. >> they don't work correctly with apps like vim/mutt/less when I connect to >> a remote unix system; these apps behave like they think the terminal >> has 24 rows.

If I open a 32-row xterm and rlogin into a unix machine, then run vim or mutt or less, these apps think the bottom of the screen is at row 24 ... they don't use the rows beyond that. > FWIW, I'm not seeing any problems running vi on a RedHat 9.0 machine via > ssh from a Win2k cmd window sized 120x40. I'm using WinXP-pro; I get the problem when I rlogin into RedHat 7.2 or SunOS 5.8 machines. It doesn't matter if I use an xterm, rxvt, or cmd window.
