Hello Daniel,

mc doesn't display lines correctly. To reproduce:

* Start "Cygwin Bash Shell" from the Windows menu. TERM is cygwin.

* Ssh to a Linux box running sid. TERM is cygwin.

* Start mc.


The problem goes away when I patch smacs with the value from cygwin's
terminfo.

I see that I have smacs=\E11m, from an earlier version of cygwin's terminfo (2003/7/19). Compare with rmacs=\E[10m

A quick check with mc (which I normally don't use) didn't show a problem, but I see that this correction fixes one of the problems that tack shows with cygwin console window (so I should have noticed it before).

Apparently this is a fix that someone made for cygwin since I added those changes (it would be nice to know when that fix was made, in case there are other changes).
