Mintty doesn't pass the VT100 Torture Test File

[ElvenSpellmaker]

Not sure how compatible with VT100 you want to be, but this might be interesting to you:

The test is located here: http://www.inwap.com/pdp10/vt100test.txt
To run it, download the file and cat it.

Here is an example of Terminal, that seems to pass it:

And here is mintty's output:

Also selection of text that is double width or double height is also (not surprisingly) broken.

Thanks for the notice; I see these issues:

• Line drawing horizontal lines. Mintty maps them to respective Unicode characters which are unfortunately not included in most fonts, so fallbacks are used. For a fix, they would need to be drawn directly (Improve rendering of linedraw characters #130).
• Underlining could be positioned lower.
• Double-width text not visible after attribute changes.
