I'm afraid I can't help with that, but hopefully the Cygwin/X
maintainer has seen your report. It might be interesting whether it
happens in the different XWin modes (single window, rootless,
multiwindow), or on a Linux host.

Thanks. I can reproduce the issue. I think I found the cause.
The two unexpected things happen.

(1) wVirtualKeyCode and wVirtualScanCode of readback key event may
be null'ed even if they are not zero on WriteConsoleInputW().
Therefore, memcmp() report the event is not equal.
(2) WriteConsoleInputW() may not be atomic. The event sequence which
is written by WriteConsoleInputW() may be inserted by key input
in the middle of the sequence.

A patch for these issues is attached. Could you please test?

Were you able to reproduce?

I found an easier way to reproduce, which works almost every time.

It still happens only on Git Bash, and not on MSYS2 MINGW64, although
I use the same dll in both. I have no idea why there's a difference.
:/

I run Windows Terminal, but it reproduces also in cmd, as you tried.

1. In Control Panel -> Keyboard, set Repeat delay to shortest and
Repeat rate to fastest.
2. In msys2-runtime run git fetch
3. Type git and press and hold q

Does anyone know how I can disable the highlighting that occurs when I

Escape sequences are added to achieve that and sometimes they're not
being properly interpreted.

Why would I want that anyway?

The same thing happens to (plain, non X windows) mintty.

It started recently, maybe a couple of weeks.  No idea how to fix it,
haven't really tried.

Very annoying.

It came in with the readline 8.1 update in September last year, which
enabled "bracketed paste mode" by default. (I think zsh has had it
enabled for a few years.)

As n952162 said, it tells the terminal to enclose pasted text in
escape sequences.

There are several points to this:
- It stops accidental multi-line pastes from getting immediately
executed line by line.
- It makes it easier to undo a paste, as you can cut it out in one go
rather than deleting manually.
- Pasting can be faster, as the application can process the paste in
one chunk rather than treating it as char-by-char keyboard input.

But yep, sometimes it can go wonky, in particular when the bracketing
mode for some reason is left on for an application that doesn't expect
it.

For readline, it can be disabled in ~/.inputrc:

set enable-bracketed-paste off

Andy



Andy, perhaps you can speak to another, almost related issue, which I
posted on 10th of March:

   /xterm*VT100.Translations only when mouse is over the window with focus/

A copy is attached here.  This is only a Cygwin issue, as far as I know.

Perhaps you can recommend someone who I could turn to, to get a fix, an
explanation, a workaround, or help to get started doing a fix?

xterm*VT100.Translations only when mouse is over the window with focus

Discovered with click-to-focus, in FVWM

In particular, I'm talking about the function keys. In this case, these
are NOT mapped in fvwm, but in xterm.

Pressing a function key, like F1, always writes to the window with
focus, but only performs the X11/xterm translations when the mouse is
hovering over the window with focus.

So, I always have to move the mouse to the window to be able to write to
the window. Otherwise, \e[P is written to the window, for example

Note that I can visit various windows with keyboard shortcuts, so
there's no natural correspondence with mouse position and window focus.

This failure to do the X11/xterm translation only occurs with x11/cygwin
xterms. Windows opened locally via sshd (port forwarded) behave
normally, performing the translation to the focused window, no matter
where the mouse is.
