I've just had to reinstall Windows (comments suppressed) and so of course
Cygwin too. I've got everything working pretty much as before, except for
one new problem: man pages are all coming out with formatting commands
rendered as garbage text. For example, the output of 'man ls' starts out
with
ESC[1mNAMEESC[0m
ls - list directory contents
where the 'ESC' strings are rendered in inverse video. The first line is
supposed to render 'NAME' in bold face.
All of my man pages are so full of this stuff as to be close to unreadable.
Can someone tell me what's causing it, and how I can fix it?
I'm using a PuTTYcyg terminal with
CYGWIN=tty ntsec
LANG=C
TERM=xterm
but I get the same results in xterm and a DOS console window. I don't see
any other artifacts on the screen. Help??
Thanks,
Andrew.
