I've seen this as well, my prompt(and everything I type)turning white if I don't go through the "bash" man page all the way to the end. I note that "stty sane" does nothing, nor does hitting enter; my prompt stays white. (This is in tcsh, where my "prompt" variable is "[EMAIL PROTECTED] %c02]$". In the standard window, it's gray on black.)
I note that when I look at the man pages for bash, there seems to be a lot of highlighted-in-white text, a lot more than on the Linux version of the same page. Perhaps the bash maintainer should be looking at the codes in the man page? I have absolutely everything installed in the latest 'curr' versions as of this morning on the mirrors. In particular: Package Version bash 3.2.5-8 cygwin 1.5.22-1 man 1.6d-2 tcsh 6.14.00-5 less 381-1 I don't see the need to include the entirety of my cygcheck.out, all 81K of it, but I can if need be. -- --Alfvaen (Web page: http://www.telusplanet.net/public/alfvaen/ ) Song In My Head--Gerry Rafferty:Baker Street Current Book--John Wyndham:The Midwich Cuckoos A Starchild gets whipped with a Van Allen belt. -- 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/
