It depends on the level of support you want from this list.  If you have
issues with executing something or you have issues with visual and
keyboard function the answer is always to use mintty.  That is what the
installer sets up for you and is expected that you are using. Otherwise
you may be on your own to determine the issue but we try to be a helpful
lot.
