Thanks very much. I built zsh 3.0.8 from scratch, set TERM to cygwin, and converted my .z* files from MS-DOS to UNIX newline format. And everything worked swimmingly; both xterm(1) and rxvt(1) work great. Many thanks for your help. (And yes, the Amol Deshpande zsh wasn't setopt interactive, for some reason.) All I need figure out now is how to get "emacs -nw" under the xterm(1) to stop saying "emacs: standard input is not a tty" and then exiting. I wonder if I need to build emacs from source and not use a precompiled version; it's the last program in the equation now that is not built using cygwin.
