And best of all, it's MinTTY fresh, not MedicineTTY. ME = STILL GOT IT. ;-) PS: File drag and drop is total coolness. It pastes in a Win32 path though, which a few Cygwin apps probably won't be able to handle. Here's a two-for-one idea, free of charge: - Add a setting where the user can set whether he wants Win32 or POSIXy paths dropped. - Add a context menu when you right-drop which allows you to "Drop path as Win32" or "Drop path as POSIX". -- Gary R.
