@subsection Is there a better alternative to the standard console window?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes! Use rxvt instead. It's an optional package in Cygwin Setup.
|
||||
You can use it with or without X11. You can resize it easily by
|
||||
dragging an edge or corner. Copy and paste is easy with the left and
|
||||
middle mouse buttons, respectively. It will honor settings in your
|
||||
~/.Xdefaults file, even without X.
|
||||
|
||||
Don't invoke as simply ``rxvt'' because that will run /bin/sh (really
|
||||
ash) which is not a good interactive shell. For details see
|
||||
@code{/usr/doc/Cygwin/rxvt-<ver>.README}.
