If mintty could be able to support fallback fonts, it would be favourite.

It's wonderfull. Both Courier New and DejaVu works. I tried DejaVu
Sans Mono. But it's a little longer in height than Lucida Console.
My 1920*1080 resolution screen, maximize window.
DejaVu Sans Mono 138*38
Lucida Console 135*43
It takes time to adapt.
