Cygwin (Linux on Windows) distribution default terminal is mintty using only Windows GUI calls and Cygwin calls for pty handling, and very xterm compatible including Tek support, with options to allow X window compatibility (ShortLongOpts but default false). Project @mintty is here on github with mintty(1), code, and wiki.

Please add to libfm/data/terminals.list:
[mintty]
open_arg=-e
noclose_arg=--hold always -e
desktop_id=mintty.desktop

Options may be:
-e, --exec PROGRAM [ARG ...]
-h, --hold a[lways]|e[rror]|n[ever]|s[tart]

  • a[lways]: Always keep the window open.
  • e[rror]: Keep the window open if the command exited with a non-zero status or it was terminated by a signal indicating a runtime error.
  • n[ever]: Don’t keep the window open.
  • s[tart]: Only keep the window open if the command exited with status 255, which is used to indicate failure to start the command. This is the default.
