[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: mintty 2.2.1

[Thomas Wolff]

I have uploaded mintty 2.2.1 with the following changes:

Major New Search Feature (thanks to Kai (twitter:@sixhundredns)):
   * Search scrollback buffer (#85); shortcuts Alt+F3 or Shift+Ctrl+H; 
configuration options.

Window placement and Multi-Monitor support:
   * Option -p @N to select monitor (#288).
   * Interactive feature to tweak Alt+F2 to select monitor.
   * Options -p right and -p bottom to align window position (#288).
   * Option -s accepts special values "maxwidth" or "maxheight" (#171).
   * Per-monitor DPI support (#470, thanks to Takashi Kawasaki).
   * Fixed initial terminal size if reduced border is specified (#7).
   * Trying to enforce initial focus (#57).
   * New option ZoomFontWithWindow to disable Shift-coupled 
font-with-window zooming (#476).
   * Accepting xterm-compatible syntax in size parameter, like -s 80x24.

Keyboard input:
   * Supporting layout-specified key input for all cases (#483, thanks 
to maxime1986).
   * Combining accented characters that are not supported by Windows (#484).
   * Application control key mode (#405).
   * Tweaked/disabled shift-coupled window-with-font zooming on some 
keys; thus:
   * Reenabled Ctrl+_ (if _ is Shift+- on keyboard layout).
   * Avoiding inadvertent window-with-font zooming if "+" is a shifted key.

Bold attribute handling:
   * Tweaked smart brightening (for BoldAsColour), considering contrast 
to both normal colour and background.
   * Support BoldAsColour without BoldAsFont for plain text (#468).
   * New option BoldColour (#468, #478).
   * Not enforcing bold-overstriking if bold colour explicitly redefined 
(#468, #478).
   * New xterm OSC sequences (5;0;rgb/105;0) to define/reset colour for 
bold attribute (#468).

Other terminal features:
   * Fixed character operations beyond terminal width (#480).
   * Supporting X11 color names for colour specifications in OSC sequences.
   * Supporting xterm sequences to maximize window 
vertically/horizontally (#394).
   * New private OSC sequence to copy the window title to the clipboard 
(#303).

Configuration:
   * Changed action buttons in Options dialog; Apply does not save changes.
   * Added some Options menu configuration items (for previously 
introduced new options, thanks for the pattern to James Darnley #384).
   * New option -C to load additional configuration file without saving 
to it, particularly for use with colour schemes.
   * Supporting X11 color names for colour specifications in options.
   * New option -R to report window geometry on exit (~#477).
   * Optional Windows taskbar integration (#471, thanks to Johannes 
Schindelin).
   * Not inhibiting size options in nested invocation from Alt+F2.
