mintty 1.1.2-1 is on its way to the Cygwin mirrors.

CHANGES
=======
- Fixed buffer overflow in processing of the control sequence for
querying font coverage.
- Tweaked double-click word selection algorithm to handle shell
variable references such as $FOO and %FOO%, and also exclamation marks
in URLs.
- Changed clicks-place-cursor feature to respect application cursor
key mode when sending left/right arrow keycodes.

Previous changes can be found at http://code.google.com/p/mintty/wiki/Changes.

DESCRIPTION
===========
Mintty is a terminal emulator for Cygwin with a native Windows user
interface and minimalist design. Among its features are Unicode
support and a graphical options dialog. Its terminal emulation is
largely compatible with xterm, but it does not require an X server.

QUESTIONS
=========
The mintty manual is installed as a manpage ('man mintty'). It is also
available at http://mintty.googlecode.com/svn/tags/1.1.2/docs/mintty.1.html.

Questions and comments can be sent to the mintty discussion group at
http://groups.google.com/group/mintty-discuss or the Cygwin mailing
list.

Please use the issue tracker at http://code.google.com/p/mintty/issues
to report bugs or suggest enhancements.

====================================================================

To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin" link on the
http://cygwin.com web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system.
Then, run setup and answer all of the questions.

Can you please consider doing something about the exit behavior? You don't have
to use my match, but please provide some sort of option for those of us who
prefer traditional xterm behavior.

I'm sorry I'm only finding time for bug fixes, trivial enhancements
and basic support at the moment. This request is in the issue tracker
(as issue 319) and I've said what I want to do with it. Reminding me
after every release is not going to speed things up.

Andy
