Hello,
Is it possible for me to automatically set the TERM variable in bash
depending on the type of my terminal.
For example, these are the things I want to accomplish:
1. If I ssh into the cygwin box from an xterm on a Linux box, I would
like TERM=xterm-color.
2. If I simply spawn a DOS-like shell, I'd like TERM=ansi
3. If I spawn an rxvt console, I'd like TERM=xterm.
I know this can be done manually but would it be possible for us to
create a script to do this?
If so, what cygwin program can we use to probe the terminal type of the
connecting client?
Thank you very much!
Best Regards,
Carlo
