[GRASSLIST:1716] cygwin peculiarities

[Richard Greenwood]

Hello kind list;

I am seeing some odd display behavior in the cygwin bash shell with 
versions 5.0.2 and 5.0.3 that I have compiled myself, but not with the 
distributed 5.0.2 cygwin binaries. Below is an example from the g.remove 
command, but similar problems exhibit themselves in other commands e.g. 
g.region.  The problem is that part of the left portion of the line most of 
the lines are missing.

5.0.2 compiled by me (missing left'ly chars):

     GRASS:~ > g.remove fsh2b
     REMOVE [fsh2b]
      raster
        ader
      category
         or
       istory

         MISSING
       MISSING

5.0.2 binary distribution (correct):

     GRASS:~ > g.remove msh2b
     REMOVE [msh2b]
      raster
      header
      category
      color
      history
      misc
      fcell    MISSING
      g3dcell  MISSING

I have the newest (possibly too new?) cygwin distribution. Most of the text 
appears correctly, and all of the modules that I have used appear to 
correctly. Is there a library that is used for this semi-formatted text 
that may be out of sync on my system? Or another area that I should explore?

I am running a "straight" bash shell (not Xwin) on Windows 2000.

This is not an urgent problem for me, but I would welcome any help that 
anyone might be able to offer.

Regards,
Rich
