POSIX support

[ferenczy]

Are there any plans to implement POSIX application support (so things like 256 colors, mouse or ANSI in general works properly)?

If not, is it possible to implement this in ConEmu easily? I mean is Windows console handling somehow separated from other code (something like module), or is it spread all over ConEmu sources?

I would love to use ConEmu, but I don't use any Windows shell and Cygwin has some issues with ConEmu currently. Also attaching MinTTY into ConEmu isn't a solution, because some things don't work properly there (like it's not possible to change tab using Ctrl + Tab while in MinTTY, text search doesn't work etc. Actually currently it doesn't work at all, if I attach MinTTY, ConEmu displays just black screen, but it was working some time ago).

There is no easy way. Implementing POSIX emulation is a great concession to applications which do not want to work in Windows.

As for mintty and ChildGui, it's a subject to create another issue with more information - it's working on my side.
