I've lately updated Windows to the latest version, and cygwin too (I had
something previous to 3.0).
I've read that interaction with non-cygwin programs should be better
because of the console-helper.
But in my daily usage the integration is worse, programs like tmux or
even less seems to have more issues than before.
For example
/cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/TortoiseSVN/bin/svn log | less
used to work correctly.
Currently if I press arrow down or up less does not scroll up or down
anymore and "ESC[" appears briefly at the top-left of the console.
Of course i could install subversion inside cygwin, as
svn log | less
works without issues, but it's just an example.
git, adb, and other programs trigger the same behavior.
Also less is not the only program, tmux for example has similar issues.
I believe the underlying issue is console-helper but I'm not sure how I
could test it, as I did, for example, not find how I could disable it,
or if the issue is already known.
I'm able to reproduce the issue on a clean machine, so it should not be
a configuration issue on my side.
Could you please try cygwin latest snapshot?

Thank you, tried and it seems to work.
I could notice only one minor issue: when making changing the terminal
size with "Wind+arrow"with
/cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/TortoiseSVN/bin/svn log | less
less does not seem to acknowledge the new terminal size, while
svn log | less
does.
If using the mouse and resizing the terminal by hand, both commands seem
to behave the same.
