Emacs and CTRL key problems using Cygwin 3.0.3

Emacs and CTRL key problems using Cygwin 3.0.3

[Jeffrey Walton]

Hi Everyone,

I just upgraded to Cygwin 3.0.3. 3.0.3 was an in-place upgrade over
top the previous version. I don't recall the previous version.

I used Cygwin x86_64 flavor and SSH'd into a Linux box. I opened a
text file with emacs and tried to delete a line with CTRL+K. Notice
the '5;5u' where the delete was supposed to occur:

    IS_APK=$(command -v apk 2>/dev/null | grep -v "^no " | wc -l)

    5;5u5;5u5;5u

    if [ "$IS_DNF" -ne 0 ]; then

Formerly emacs worked as expected.

Any ideas what might be going sideways?

Jeff

Fixed with mintty 2.9.8.

I just updated, and saw mintty was the only package. But I am still
seeing the issue.

Sure you're running mintty 2.9.8 when you again see the issue? Please 
check in Options - About.

2.9.7 was released very recently. You probably grabbed that version, and 2.9.8
did not hit your mirror yet.

P.S.

OK, thank. I updated again today and there were no updates.

I rebooted in case something old was in memory. The problem is still present.

Yes, certainly. How does one do it?

The updates that were applied earlier today fixed the issue.

Thanks.
