<description lang="en" title="terminal emulator" > |
| 11 |
<paragraph>VT102 terminal emulator for both X and Windows. This |
| 12 |
version has been modified and compiled for use in the MSYS |
| 13 |
environment, and does not attempt to use an X display even if |
| 14 |
available; it always operates in "native" Windows mode. |
| 15 |
</paragraph> |
| 16 |
<paragraph>To launch MSYS in an rxvt window, create a shortcut |
| 17 |
to C:\msys\1.0\msys.bat, with the argument "--rxvt". Some |
| 18 |
people find rxvt a more accomodating terminal than cmd.exe, since |
| 19 |
it may be resized at will and has a larger scrollback buffer. |
| 20 |
However, rxvt sometimes does not interoperate well with native |
| 21 |
applications (such as MinGW gcc), so the default cmd.exe console |
| 22 |
is recommended for most users. |
| 23 |
</paragraph> |
| 24 |
<paragraph>Another alternative console implementation that many users |
| 25 |
find congenial is the "Console 2.00" project. This replacement |
| 26 |
console is not provided by the MinGW/MSYS team directly for licensing |
| 27 |
reasons (Console 2.00 is GPL, but cannot currently be compiled using |
| 28 |
Libre tools), but you may install the msys-console package which provides |
| 29 |
the `console-config' script. This script which will download, |
| 30 |
install, and configure the Console 2.00 team's packages. |

<!-- NOTE: the rxvt-2.7.10.20050409-* versions have a serious flaw, in |
| 38 |
that whenever a native application is launched from within an rxvt |
| 39 |
session, a black cmd window pops up. If we ever solve this problem, |
| 40 |
then add newer versions to this manifest. Until then, however... --> |
