Hi Oleg and thank you for your help!

I tried this, with the following output:

Robert Mark Bram@DIJONG ~
$ cygcheck --check-setup | grep ncurses
libncurses5         5.2-1
libncurses6         5.2-8
ncurses             5.2-8

$

What does ncurses do?? Creative error messages? :)

mm.. this seems to be where Andrew was pointing to as well:

Robert Mark Bram@DIJONG ~
$ env | grep -i term
TERMINFO=C:\PROGRA~1\RATIONAL\RATION~1\NUTCROOT\usr\lib\terminfo
TERMCAP=C:\PROGRA~1\RATIONAL\RATION~1\NUTCROOT\etc\termcap
TERM=nutc

$

Rational Rose has altered these variables for itself. It seems I have to
claim them back, but what should I change them to?

Rob
