Updated: mintty-0.9.6-1

[Andy Koppe <andy.koppe@gmail.com>]

mintty 0.9.6-1 is on its way to the Cygwin mirrors, with a couple of
fixes and enhancements.

CHANGES
=======
- Fixed crash triggered by lots of combining characters on the same
line.
- Corrected initialisation of the bold background colour. (This is
used to display the blink attribute when blinking is disabled.)
- Added 'Show bold as font' option. Previously, disabling 'Show bold
as colour' would cause text with the bold attribute to be displayed
with a thicker font instead of a brighter colour. Having these as
separate options allows bold text to be shown with both a thicker font
and a brighter colour, which is the default in xterm and others. The
mintty default remains bold-as-colour-only.
- Added options that allow to disable the copy and paste shortcuts Ctrl
+Ins and Shift+Ins as well as the various Alt+Fn window command
shortcuts.
- Added an option for enabling a set of Ctrl+Shift+letter shortcuts as
found in KDE Konsole and GNOME Terminal, as an alternative to the Ctrl/
Shift+Ins and Alt+Fn shortcuts. Examples include Ctrl+Shift+V for
paste and Ctrl+Shift+N for opening a new window. (These only appear in
menus if the corresponding default shortcuts are disabled.)
- Tweaked option wording and placement (again). The scrolling option
now are all on the Window pane of the options dialog.

DESCRIPTION
===========
Mintty is a terminal emulator for Cygwin with a native Windows user
interface and minimalist design. 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.
