Prob: won't run tty vim on windows

The version listed below won't run inside a TTY.

Have tried "SecureCRT" (30 day free trial) that I've used for
many years, and tried "xterm" (runs via "X11").
SecureCRT can be setup to ssh back into localhost, or
you can setup rsh/rlogin to only allow login from localhost
(which is what i do).

With both I get:

> /prog64/vim/current/vim
Vim: Error: This version of Vim does not run in a Cygwin terminal

Any idea why it thinks everything is a cygwin terminal?

What terminal emulators does it work with on windows?

Maybe this related to it not working w/24-bit color?
