What's new:
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
- For performance reasons, Cygwin does not try to create sparse files
|
|
automatically anymore, unless you use the new "sparse" mount option.
|
|
|
|
- Added Windows console cursor appearance support:
|
|
|
|
- Show/Hide Cursor mode (DECTCEM): "ESC[?25h" / "ESC[?25l"
|
|
|
|
- Set cursor style (DECSCUSR): "ESC[n q" (note the space before the q);
|
|
where n is 0, 1, 2 for block cursor, 3, 4 for underline cursor (all
|
|
disregarding blinking mode), or > 4 to set the cursor height to a
|
|
percentage of the cell height.
|
|
|
|
- New API: cfsetspeed.
|
|
|
|
- Changes in cygwin1.dll and gdb-7.5.50-2 now allow gdb to recognize
|
|
Cygwin-specific signals like "SIGTERM" as well as Windows signals like
|
|
"SIGSEGV". This feature is still experimental.
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
- Fix handle leak in rewinddir(3). This affected Windows 2000 only.
|
|
|
|
- Allow quoted filenames in @ argument expression when called from native
|
|
processes. Fixes http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2012-12/msg00276.html
|
|
|
|
- Fix a bug in initializing the stdio settings at process startup, which
|
|
could result in missing output.
|
|
Fixes http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2013-01/msg00008.html
|
|
|
|
- rename("dir1", "dir2") could result in deleting dir2, even if the rename
|
|
didn't take place, for instance, if dir1 and dir2 were not on the same
|
|
device.
|
|
|
|
- rename("file1", "file2") would fail in almost all cases on NFS, due to a
|
|
bug in the NFS driver's implementation of the FileRenameInformation info
|
|
class.
|
|
|
|
- Fix bug where dup2 segv'ed on negative fd.
|
