No, same effect as with Ctrl-Z - short flickering of the terminal window, but no process suspension. While staring at the flickering, it seems to me that the content of the window before starting vim appears for a fraction of a second, as if vim is suspended, but then restarted immediately. FYI, the text browser links crashes also on the first suspension (like mutt). ncftp can be suspended 2 times - but the third time, it starts to use up all CPU time of the machine (starting the task manager for killing the runaway ncftp process took several minutes) and issues error messages: ncftp 4005689 [unknown (0x7BC)] ncftp 1548 sig_send: wait for sig_complete event faile d, signal -34, rc 258, Win32 error 0 64092356 [unknown (0x7BC)] ncftp 1548 sig_send: wait for sig_complete event fail ed, signal 2, rc 258, Win32 error 0 128154788 [unknown (0x23C)] ncftp 1548 sig_send: wait for sig_complete event fai led, signal -34, rc 258, Win32 error 0 188280509 [unknown (0x23C)] ncftp 1548 sig_send: wait for sig_complete event fai led, signal 2, rc 258, Win32 error 0 248437654 [unknown (0x1B4)] ncftp 1548 sig_send: wait for sig_complete event fai led, signal -34, rc 258, Win32 error 0 327140672 [unknown (0x1B4)] ncftp 1548 sig_send: wait for sig_complete event fai led, signal 2, rc 258, Win32 error 0 Stefan -- Dr. Stefan Dalibor <dalibor at cs dot fau dot de> -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
