Re^26: CPAN and readline on windows

"aaaaah"!

:-)))))

I wonder what created that setting. Cygwin would be my guess, as its (bash) shell also reports TERM=dumb ... except that my XP laptop has never had Cygwin installed on it. The msys (bash) shell reports TERM=msys.

Or maybe 'dumb' is the default - and you guys have done something to change it ?

Anyway - another mystery solved. Nice work ikegami, BrowserUk.

Cheers,
Rob

The post to which you link assumes that Perl is only executed from the command prompt. In practice, it's also launched from file managers (via file associations) and from IDEs.	[reply]
