SSH and terminal emulator problems

[Akihiko Tozawa]

I have recently installed SSH1&2. from
ftp://ftp.franken.de/pub/win32/develop/gnuwin32/cygwin/porters/Okhapkin_Serg
ey
and I have the same problems as reported here several times.
Maybe related to /dev/tty.  I am absolutely novice about what /dev/tty is.
The nearest symptom is:

And in fact, there are already given good solutions:
1) get Fsecure ssh.
2) build ncurses and 'tset -s -Q -l ansi'?
3) rxvt(runs without Xserver)
4) install Xserver and xterm (or kterm = kanji xterm)

I have tried 3)( http://www.io.com/~bub/rxvt.html ), and it works fine, except
for
that it does not support locale and does not print Japanese.  I prefer DOS
window
which prints Japanese, but it waits for inputs with SSH as reported above.
I'm afraid to install Xserver into my poor machine.
(and TTSSH( http://www.zip.com.au/~roca/ttssh.html ) is not enough for me
since it does not support SSH2)

Anyway, it seems there is no complete answer for me.
Anybody can teach me why DOS window (or emacs shell-mode) is
so incomplete in emulating terminals?  What is /dev/tty?

A.T.
