You mentioned that Monospace is used by gvim under X. It's likely that X is providing that font or at least a font under that name. Mintty does not use X, so it will only be able to provide the fonts available from Windows. I believe rxvt has this same limitation, actually. > However, the Fixedsys font is proposed, which is OK for me (my feeling is > that the Lucida Console is too thin and the Lucida Console-bold is not nice). Try downloading the Monotype font from somewhere and installing it into your Windows fonts. I expect it will show up under mintty's font picker as soon as you do that. > I agree that Mintty is great.

While center click should paste by default, mintty is not configured to copy on select by default. You need to perform just a little tweaking to make mintty act more like an xterm with regards to mouse operations. -Jeremy -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
