Chris and I are wondering how many people are using the Windows console
as local console window in CYGWIN=tty mode and why.
I'm not but there's various references to it it the web about it being
requires for Emacs. eg.
http://blog.arithm.com/2007/12/01/killing-cygwin-emacs/ I hope that
these references are outdated with Cygwin 1.7?
This is still the case: emacs does not work well in the console unless
CYGWIN=tty is set. But I don't see this as a reason to keep the
CYGWIN=tty mode for the console. I see it as a reason for emacs users
to use a different terminal emulator, such as mintty.
