Cygwin X
I have managed a successful install of Cygwin (after a few tries), and like any sensible person am ignoring the console in favour of the xconsole. I have this set up how I want - tcsh, all hot-keys (including ^z for suspend) and et cetera, but find it awfully slow. Are there any good alternatives? I grew up with bash, and then became a csh user (hence the tcsh), but am willing to try something new if it is less unwieldy.
