Subject: Documentation for cygwin-console-helper.exe
Date: Sun, 12 Aug 2018 23:53:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1b1fd757-dd11-72a7-cc2c-7280d89a0500@gmail.com> (raw)

The documentation for cygwin-console-helper.exe is missing, not even a
--help function.  No comments in the source code.  Only a code.google
page for mintty[1] was beneficial to allow me to understand it and then
it was a late entry comment that sort of explained the purpose.  I will
revisit this issue with a source code patch to add comments.
