Hi Christopher,
I have a feeling from your arrogant attitude, that there is no chance to
pay attention to this issue, am I right? That's a pity, because this
attitude will result in people don't want to waste their time with trying to
help make this software better. I really don't understand that. I'm happy
when someone notify me to bug in my software, moreover when he spends his
time to precisely describe the bug and how to reproduce it. It's not clever
to make him look stupid.
I feel sad from this attitude.
ConEmu developer is open to try to solve this issue. But I thought that
it would be much better to try to solve it for all console emulators (that
means by Cygwin), not for ConEmu only.
Have a nice day.
