Cygwin also has an rxvt terminal emulator that may be more to your liking, but I haven't used it and so can't tell you what it's like.
It's awesome, if you're still using the DOS box change over immediately.
Believe me now and thank me later.
Yes, it is quite nice. But I'm a little stuck. I'm trying to edit the 
.bashrc file with vim, so I type 'vim .bashrc', and nothing happens. The 
cursor moves down to the next line, but vim isn't really being invoked, 
the file doesn't open, but I also don't get any error message saying 
that bash can't find the vim command. I'm not sure why I won't work.
Also, is there a way to change the color of the user name and 
directories that appear above the $ prompt? I find the bright green and 
pale yellow not very easy to read with my white background.
Thanks.
