But your question is how readline is not working, and yet your cygcheck shows that q is not even using readline (unless it is loading it dynamically after the fact, as if by dlsym). So you're probably asking the wrong question. About the only other idea I have is that your terminal is behaving differently than it used to, but it doesn't look like you are using mintty, which was the only other recently updated cygwin package in 1.5 that seems like it would be relevant. Or maybe you changed your environment variables, such that cygwin is now passing a tty (which q sees as a pipe) instead of a console. But since the cygwin 1.5 dll has not changed recently, that seems weird, unless you admit that it has been a LONG time since your previous cygwin upgrade. > I am not asking to take responsibility for non-Cygwin executables > but to offer a hint as to what could possibly cause this failure. And I'm saying I don't know, nor can I, since on the surface, q has nothing to do with cygwin and nothing has really changed in recent cygwin 1.5 releases that should have any effect on non-cygwin apps. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
