When using windows terminal, programs using the C Functions provided by cygwin1.dll to print to stdout (such as printf, puts), do not render the text color as would be appropriate when using an ANSI Escape sequence, such as "\033[38;2;255;0;0m". The functionality has been confirmed on native linux with glibc, as well as when displaying to mintty.exe. Additionally, the issue does not occur with native windows executables performing the same task, linked with msvcrt as the C library implementation, both run through windows command line programs such as cmd.exe and powershell, and cygwin bash. The issue seems to be a disparity between the handling of these escape sequences in cygwin1.dll and in Windows Terminal as is noted in the issue filed at https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/2837.
