Hi,
I am wondering if you have such problem. When I run cygwin, sometimes I need to do a copy & paste of the cygwin window to other Windows application. One convinient way to do this is to click "Property" of the window and enable "Quick Edit Mode". Then I can use mouse to select any text on Cygwin window, press "Enter" to copy.

The problem is, I find that when I run some large Makefile to build my software, quite often it is stuck in the middle; sometimes I need to press Enter, sometimes Enter does not help either.
The problem is that you probably click on the window which causes the Windows cmd box to start a selection of a single character. While the selection process is going on output to the terminal is halted.

Why don't you look into rxvt? It's a much more functional terminal than the old Windows DOS box...
 Only after I turn off the Quick Edit mode, the problem goes away.

 Do you know how to do with it?

Thanks.
