Arrow Keys & Bash Shortcuts do not work

[Ajay Jain]

Hi,

I am in a fix. My arrow keys (left, right, up, down, Alt-F, Alt-B,
Ctrl-P, Ctrl-N ) do not work.

What should I do? I tried looking on the net, but there is no clear way out.

Then I opened cygiwn (c:\cygwin\cygwin.bat).

I did the following:

cygcheck -k

Left Arrow - Pressed  1x VK: 0x25 VS: 0x4b A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- --
-- -- -- -- --
Released 1x VK: 0x25 VS: 0x4b A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- -- -- -- -- -- --

Right Arrow - Pressed  1x VK: 0x27 VS: 0x4d A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- --
-- -- -- -- --
Released 1x VK: 0x27 VS: 0x4d A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- -- -- -- -- -- --

Up Arrow - Pressed  1x VK: 0x26 VS: 0x48 A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- -- --
-- -- -- --
Released 1x VK: 0x26 VS: 0x48 A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- -- -- -- -- -- --

Down Arrow - Pressed  1x VK: 0x28 VS: 0x50 A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- --
-- -- -- -- --
Released 1x VK: 0x28 VS: 0x50 A: 0x00 CTRL: -- EK -- -- -- -- -- -- --

Then I pressed Ctrl-V Left Arrow, Ctrl-V Right Arrow, Ctrl-V Up Arrow,
Ctrl-V Bottom Arrow and I get:

^[[D^[[C^[[A^[[B

What should I do? I expect that the keys should work out of box.

Regards,
Ajay.
