Hi!
Noticed some time ago: most of subshells lost colors and prints some codes.
Sample output:
====================================================================================
User@PcName ~
$ dash
\[\e]0;\w\a\]\n\[\e[32m\]\u@\h \[\e[33m\]\w\[\e[0m\]\n$ exit
User@PcName ~
$ ash
\[\e]0;\w\a\]\n\[\e[32m\]\u@\h \[\e[33m\]\w\[\e[0m\]\n$ exit
User@PcName ~
$ zsh
\[\e]0;\w\a\]\n\[\e[32m\]\u@\h \[\e[33m\]\w\[\e[0m\]\n\$ exit
User@PcName ~
$ bash
User@PcName ~
$ exit
exit
User@PcName ~
$ mksh
\[\e]0;\w\a\]\n\[\e[32m\]\u@\h \[\e[33m\]\w\[\e[0m\]\n$ exit
User@PcName ~
$ fish
Welcome to fish, the friendly interactive shell
Type help for instructions on how to use fish
User@PcName ~> exit
User@PcName ~
$ sh
User@PcName ~
$ exit
exit
User@PcName ~
$
====================================================================================
Default shell started with installed desktop shortcut (mintty).
bash, sh and fish shells print colorized prompt.
The rest prints ANSI codes.
Same happens in Windows standard console.
Am I doing incorrectly something?
