vi on cygwin with aix
Hi,

I'm using cygwin with bash on nt4 to connect to aix 5.2 with ksh using ssh and I've noticed that my keyboard behaves strange when using vi. I've already set my terminal type to vt100 on cygwin but this only helps a little. Now I can start vi but it seems it recieves different commands then I'm pressing, keys like spacebar etc. are interpreted differently. Any ideas anyone?

Thanks.
