I have previously used the pscp.exe utility with the standard cygwin
bash shell (this is what you get when clicking on the cygwin icon).
However, I modified my cygwin.bat file to:
@echo off
C:
chdir C:\cygwin\bin
rxvt -sl 1500 -fn 'terminal' -bg black -fg grey -sr -e bash --login -i
bash --login -i
This automatically brings up the rxvt window, which I like for clickable
filenames. However, when I type in the password asked for by pscp, I
can see the letters as I type them (when you shouldn't be able to).
Then it is rejected by the site I'm connecting to, as if it never
received it. Is there a problem using pscp under rxvt?
'pscp' is not a Cygwin program so it doesn't understand Cygwin ptys. Run
'pscp' under 'cmd' and make sure your CYGWIN environment variable doesn't
contain 'tty'. Then it should work. That or build a Cygwin version of
putty and friends.
