MinTTY - Copy and Paste Issue

2009-01-03 Thread ERIC HO
I tried MinTTY under cygwin this morning. It works great. I just have 2 issues. Under vim, I found that when I copy a paragraph of text in Notepad or PDF and paste it into vim, only the first line is copied. Also, I have PF keys map to shortcuts including :q! ^M. But they are not working now.

Could I use backslash directly as path delimiter on cygwin?
