I have no idea why. But it would seem to me that that using the native Windows version of vim in a cmd.exe shell might possibly avoid this. Another thing to try would be to launch vim via a batch file like this. @echo off bash -c vim %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 - Barry Disclaimer: Statements made herein are not made on behalf of NIAID. -- 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/
