Perhaps you aren't a native English speaker and incorrectly took offense at the mild term "gobbledegook" which was not directed at you. I was referring to the author of the web page that you referenced. If that is the author of ConEmu then he really doesn't seem to have a handle on how things work which is rather surprising given that he's written ConEmu. "ANSI codes" and "Windows consoles" don't mix. >ConEmu developer is open to try to solve this issue.

You seem to have missed the point that I posted a new snapshot with a fix for this particular issue. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
