To tell the truth, git log says: commit bd627864ab4189984cdb0892c00f91e39c4e8243 Cygwin: console: support 24 bit color This feature is for console, that is, command prompt. Command prompt in Win10 1703 has xterm compatible mode, which is enabled by passing ENABLE_VIRTUAL_TERMINAL_PROCESSING to SetConsoleMode(). -- Takashi Yano <takashi.y...@nifty.ne.jp> -- 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
