No CRs in :! command output from vim in rxvt

2009-10-05 Thread Gary Johnson
When I run vim in an rxvt terminal, and I execute a shell command such as :!ls there are no carriage returns in the output, only line feeds at the ends of the lines, so the lines stair-step across the terminal window. This has been a problem for as long as I've been using vim on Cygwin. The
