Among its features are Unicode support and a graphical options dialog. Its terminal emulation is largely compatible with xterm, but it does not require an X server. Mintty is based on code from PuTTY by Simon Tatham and team. CHANGES =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D - Ctrl+slash now sends ^_ as in xterm. - New --class command line option allows to change the name of mintty's window class. That can make it easier to distinguish different mintty windows in scripting tools like AutoHotKey. - Dim mode is no longer limited to the 16 basic colours. - Drop long path prefix ('\\?\') from Windows paths when opening files or directories. Some programs couldn't deal with those properly. - Bring the charset support into line with upcoming changes in Cygwin 1.7.2: use nl_langinfo(CODESET) instead of making assumptions about locales without explicit charsets, and allow three-letter language codes. - The postinstall and preremove scripts should now work in non-admin setups.
