#### Mintty settings ####
|
||||
|
||||
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`
|
||||
* `%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).
