Message-ID: <announce.29d5f505-47c1-8d2d-c2a7-90755ed216d5@towo.net> (raw)
I have uploaded mintty 2.8.2 with the following changes:
Window and session control
 * Transparent session switcher icons (#699).
 * Avoid blocking when switching to other window which is
blocked/suspended.
 * Prevent initial bogus font zooming (#708).
 * Prevent accidental text selection on mouse-click window activation
(#717).
 * Terminal Break available in extended context menu (#716).
 * Terminal Break assignable to Break key (option Key_Break) (#716).
Configuration
 * Support ~/ prefix for config files in SessionCommands configuration
for session launcher.
 * Support ~/ prefix for logfiles, especially for usage in config files.
 * With --WSL, let option "-" request login shell.
 * Icon determined via --WSL shall not override icon taken from shortcut.
 * Option ShortLongOpts enables single-dash named options on command
line (#600, requested by Brian Inglis).
 * Convenience xterm-style command line options: -fn, -fs, -geometry,
-fg, -bg, ...
Character rendering and text attribute handling
 * Caching ambiguous character width for speed-up (#712).
 * Revised weight attribute handling, esp. bold display (thanks to
avih, #714, #710).
 * Distinguishing ANSI colours 0..15 from palette colours 0..15 like
xterm (~#714).
 * OSC 6 can enable/disable bold foreground colour (xterm).
 * Tweaked brightened bold to never decrease the text colour contrast.
 * Terminal Reset also resets dynamic bold foreground colour.
 * Fixed non-BMP italic display.
 * Proper support of true colour attribute for Copy as rich text
(thanks to avih, #710).
 * Colour setting sequence OSC 4 limited to the defined palette range
(~#710).
 * Allowing minor font size deviation of bold font.
 * Underlay manual underline and overline behind text.
 * Option BoldAsRainbowSparkles.
Other
 * Bundling selected theme files with the package (#711).
 * Support Alt+F2 in same directory (after OSC 7) for WSL.
 * MINTTY_PID in UserCommands: support to terminate foreground process
(#716).
 * Fixed bug when copying true-colour text as rich text (thanks to avih).
 * Prevent HOME from being propagated back to Windows applications if
called from WSL (mintty/wsltty#76).
