Hello,

I'm not sure if there is still this button in mintty:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44465656/cygwin-import-color-scheme-from-color-scheme-designer

I changed in 4bit the way how schemes are downloaded, so there is no direct link to scheme. You can't open it in a new page (for some time browsers doesn't allow opening new tab with data), instead the BLOB is generated on click and it's downloaded. So I think the last comment in this stackoverflow thread will not work with drag and drop, the scheme has to be saved. Is it a big deal, or you need this drag and drop option? I think mintty is the only terminal that has a direct link to my app, so I'm very grateful for finding it useful and I would like to keep it going. Some bugfixes comming soon, after 10 years of no activity :).

Thanks a lot, I have some other software myself that got suspended actually due to mintty (editor mined).
Yes, the button is still there and I'd still appreciate it to work (see also mintty/wsltty#164).
I just noticed there is a problem, good to know there was a change, so I won't look for a bug in the wrong place.
Drag and drop was a nice way to integrate it, I think, and the change will be incompatible with older mintty versions anyway, but I'll check out how to proceed best.

When I drag-n-drop from the current version, I get something like
blob:http://ciembor.github.io/b7fe560b-db6e-450b-af68-00a3ef44a412
which looks as if it might indicate hex values for 16 ANSI colours, however, the values do not seem to change after adjusting the schem. Do they have any meaning so I could change the way to interpret the drag-n-drop?
Or is there a chance to revert to the previous way or another way to support drag-n-drop? It's actually a nice mode of operation and it has been suggested in the mintty wiki...

I had some fix on mind to make it work like before, but I will have to take a look at it again, because I forgot :). I'm not sure when I will have free time for this, but I will try to do this this month. No, it's not colors, this is I believe some blob id.
