I have cygwin and WindowEyes and did a brief test. I was able to log
into my Linux box and briefly use VI and the cursor was still blinking
and seemed to be in the right place. I cannot speak for Solaris, but
maybe -- I just checked cygwin is indicated inmy terminfo, so that is
maybe why this is working.
