Thanks for testing and the test file. With mintty 3.8.1, the test script works with the following settings, with/without wls in mintty window. Show bold: as font Allow blinking: on Show dif as fot: on Without OpenConsole.exe, "5: text blinking" and "6: text blinking rapidly" are the same result and "CMYK colour" does not work while all attributes work with OpenConsole.exe.
