FWIW, I've been using a home-built mintty-0.9b2 from googlecode all day with no problems (loving extended mouse mode!). I swear I just checked setup.exe two hours ago, but I'll check again and switch to official one when I get a chance. FYI, it looks like you can enable extended mouse mode manually (echo -ne '\e[?1005h'), and it persists across normal mouse mode sessions. This is handy because (a) emacs-23 can use it out of the box and (b) it works around gnu screen intercepting and ignoring the escape sequence > Xterm compatibility: > - 'Extended Mouse Mode' as introduced in xterm #262 is now supported. > This allows row/column positions greater than 255 (and up to 2015) to > be reported, in case you do get that 30'' monitor ...
