mintty comes with cygwin and msys2. It's the one I use. Other people have recommended other terminal emulators like ConEmu, but those have varying (subpar) levels of Unicode/color support.
- self_awareness 11y agoI also use mintty. It's not great, but I haven't seen anything better (it seems that ConEmu is optimized for cmd.exe, not bash). I'm really using `tmux` inside `mintty` so I have an emulation of tabs inside one terminal. It's not super-convinient, requires the user to setup his/her own .tmux.rc, but it gets the job done (still orders of magnitude better than cmd.exe or "even" powershell).
