MinTTY version 0.3.5 is available from http://mintty.googlecode.com.
It addresses one serious bug and brings a few small enhancements:

The bug:
- The --config option was unusable, because MinTTY would attempt to
invoke '--config' as the child process command.

Enhancements:
- The user's default shell can be invoked as a login shell by passing
'-' (a single minus character) as the command.
- Word selection (by double-clicking) now includes the tilde character
in filenames.
- Added command line option for setting the initial window title.
- Added short versions of command line options.
- Improved help output.

mintty --help
Usage: mintty [OPTION]... [COMMAND [ARGS]...]

If no command is given, the user's default shell is invoked as a 
non-login shell. If the command is a single minus sign, the default 
shell is invoked as a login shell. Otherwise the command is invoked with 
the given arguments.

Options:
   -c, --config=FILE   Use specified config file (default: ~/.minttyrc)
   -t, --title=TITLE   Set window title (default: the invoked command)
   -h, --help          Display this help and exit
   -v, --version       Print version information and exit

With any luck, this will be the last MinTTY announcement in this form.

Andy
