Not only in xterm but also in standard bash shell.
I have always used xterm and until today I never have discovered those
problems.
What about the fact that when "rm" command (or cp or mv) ask to confirm
something, I can move the (box) cursor along the window as in a Editor?
Thanks

BACKSPACE does not delete "y" as aspected but it only shifts the cursor on

This has something to do with how BACKSPACE is defined in xterm. It is not
a generic cygwin problem. I suggest that you try the cygwin-xfree mailing list
in that case.
Also, there is absolutely no reason to cc corinna-cygwin in your email. Go
