Mintty can maintain its configuration file in various locations,
with the following precedence:
* file given with mintty option `-c`
* `%LOCALAPPDATA%\wsltty\home\%USERNAME%\.minttyrc`
* `%LOCALAPPDATA%\wsltty\home\%USERNAME%\.config\mintty\config`
* `%HOME%\.minttyrc`
* `%HOME%\.config\mintty\config`
* `%APPDATA%\mintty\config`
* `%LOCALAPPDATA%\wsltty\etc\minttyrc`
Note that the `%APPDATA%\mintty\config` option provides the possibility
to maintain common mintty settings for various installations (like
wsltty, Cygwin, MinGW/msys, Git for Windows, MinEd for Windows).
Note:
* By default, `%HOME%` would refer to the root directory of the cygwin standalone
installation hosting wsltty. So `%HOME%` would mean `%LOCALAPPDATA%\wsltty\home\%USERNAME%`.
If you define `HOME` at Windows level, this changes accordingly.
Note, however, that the WSL `HOME` is a completely different setting.
* The `%APPDATA%\mintty\config` option provides the possibility to
maintain common mintty settings for various installations (like
wsltty, Cygwin, MinGW/msys, Git for Windows, MinEd for Windows).
