Hi, mintty has slow keyboard feedback in auto repeat mode. Version 3.1.4-1 works correctly. The problem arises from version 3.1.5-1 and it exists in 3.1.6-1. Now I use the old 3.1.4-1 version because of it.
I can reproduce this issue on demand by reinstalling mentioned versions of mintty in setup GUI. I do not change anything more. It is quite a fresh and minimal installation of Cygwin. My standard keyboard speed settings in Control Panel / Keyboard / Speed tab: repeat delay: the shortest repeat rate: the fastest The best way to reproduce this I think is to simultaneously open notepad and mintty session. Please hold down a key and recognize the speed of printed characters and compare their speed in notepad and mintty session. My configuration: laptop HP ProBook 640 G2, Windows 10 Enterprise 64-bit Version: 17763.1217, Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6200U CPU @ 2.30GHz, 8 GB RAM; Cygwin installed with “just for me” option in a subfolder placed in my Windows desktop. Should I change something in Mintty settings to achieve fast keyboard feedback in auto repeat mode? Is this case related to software changes?
