I've just tested Midnight Commander, vim, aptitude, than the same all inside tmux and the only problem I had was the color schema as I like white background and apps chose black foreground which is hard to look at because I made blue pretty dark (resulting in black on dark blue). I set $TERM to "xterm-256color" in ~/.bashrc unconditionally (so no heuristics are used by term related code). > To avoid that, the wslbridge2 gateway should be used instead, which is > implicitly involved when running mintty with option --WSL.

It would be nice to have it integrated into Cygwin transparent to users if it provides something important (in my case there weren't any blocking issues, except color schema). -- http://defun.work/ -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
