I'm running some apps in screen under cygwin. However, when trying to reattach to the screen via 'screen -r', 'screen -x', and 'screen -RR' nothing appears to happen and I just get a new prompt line, no error messages or nothing. 'screen -ls' does list the screen as Detached. Any hints would be greatly appreciated. | ||||

The problem is sometimes in the not-so-great terminal emulation of cygwin's terminal; All these problems went away for me once I switched to using the fork of putty patched to connect to a local cygwin process like bash. | |||

Another option would be to install mintty from within the Cygwin Setup. You can select it in: I've been using mintty ever since I found out about it. | |||

What terminal are you using? I use rxvt which works quite well. The default terminal which runs inside a windows command prompt has many limitations. Mintty is nice too, especially if you're used to Putty. | |||
