Confirmed.
Either
- changing to 'best appearance' (visual effects) or
- changing to 'Windows 7' (personalization)
does the trick ... i.e. mintty v211 (and v212 as modified by me, but W/O removing the
invocation of update_transparency() ) will not crash
Changing back to "my default" will make them crash again.
Exit Henri
