MinTTY is a terminal emulator for Cygwin with a native Windows user
interface and minimalist design. Its terminal emulation is largely
compatible with xterm, but it does not require an X server to be
running. It is based on code from PuTTY 0.60 by Simon Tatham and team.

This update contains a number of bugfixes that had accumulated during
development for mintty-0.4. (Btw, 0.4-beta2 is available for download
from the MinTTY project page.)

CHANGES (since 0.3.8-1)
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
- The console window that pops on Windows 7 now gets hidden.
Unfortunately the console still flickers up briefly, but the
underlying problem has been reported to MS, so it might still get
sorted before release.
- Characters in the "East Asian Ambiguous" category are now displayed
as wide characters if a dual-width font such as MS Gothic or MS Mincho
is selected. This is for compatibility with existing practice.
- IMEs (Input Method Editors) are now supported.
- UTF-8 and other codepages are supported for the window title.
- The MinTTY window should no longer cling to the screen edges on
startup.
- External window resizes e.g. due to the taskbar's window arrangement
commands are now supported.
- Lines are no longer cropped when narrowing the window, i.e. hidden
content reappears when widening it again.
- The man page had a couple of typos in the .lesskey lines for
activating mousewheel support in less. Here are the correct entries:
              \e[1;2A back-line
              \e[1;2B forw-line
              \e[5;2~ back-screen
              \e[6;2~ forw-screen
