Originally created by @niderhoff on GitHub (Mar 22, 2020).

Environment

Windows build number: 10.0.18363.0
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 0.10.761.0

Any other software?
- Git for Windows v2.25.0 (January 13th 2020)

Steps to reproduce

  • Open vim in a git-bash shell

Expected behavior

Colors & glyphs work same as in WSL bash

Actual behavior

Background color is messed up, other colors are missing and different font-glyphs are replaced by squares:

As you can see it is only vim, the prompt is fine.

As a comparison, the same vim config in a WSL-bash environment:

Any ideas? Seems like some issue with mingw?
