Well you aren't just using "plain" bash. The fact of the matter is you
are using an native windows application which acts as a wrapper for
command.com. So either way, you still aren't using just plain bash. So
why be difficult? Use rxvt, it works and there isn't anything you can do
in command.com that you can't do in rxvt.
Cheers,
Nicholas
