When using normal cmd.exe console, using https://github.com/bmatzelle/gow and then using nano readme.txt, all works normally.

In the new terminal, arrow keys displays [ Unknown Command ] (Backspace also not working sometimes and typing leave the cursor 1 letter behind, i.e.: typing teste gives me test|e (notice the cursor before the last e, not after, where it should be)
