ConEmu + bash CTRL+L no longer working

0

I set up the following task in ConEmu in order to run bash:

C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login -i  -cur_console:d:C:\cygwin\bin

Up until today, it ran wonderfully. However, I updated cygwin today, and now Ctrl+L doesn't work (it seems to work like Ctrl+C, or just Enter -- another line is entered). Mintty works as expected (CTRL+L works fine).

Any ideas on what is going on here?

Upd. That was the change of cygwin's clear screen realization. ConEmu had blocked some activities with console screen buffer. Corrected in the build 140416.

The rest of answer left for the history, because it still may be actual for other cugwin problems.

To ensure that is cygwin problem - run from Win+R (not from mintty) your shell

C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login -i

And try your action (CtrlL). If it reproduced in the standard console - report bugs to cygwin team.

I ran bash, and it cleared normally (Ctrl+L). But a reboot fixed it. Sorry about that... – BlottoBot – 2014-04-12T10:36:14.400

Thank you. I just had this problem recur, and I came back here to add a comment, and you'd noted that a new release fixed the problem 4 minutes before I came here. Thank you so much! – BlottoBot – 2014-04-19T17:40:23.043
