Thanks for the quick response. Adding these lines of codes to my program and to the simple test case mentioned solved the problem of gaps in lines when run from mintty with pcon enabled. However, it does not solve the problem of mintty misbehavior when started from a bash script to run the same program. Maybe this is a problem that Thomas Wolf would be interested in.
