This may be a mingw specific issue, but I'm not sure since I've never tested yazi in mingw

There is a possible similar issue, #979, please read through it and try #979 (comment) to see what happens

I corss compile to build a x86_64-pc-windows-gnullvm yazi by rustup x86_64-pc-windows-gnu toolchain. It works in msys2 clang64 shell.
But it seem like don't work well in tmux, need keystroke 'j' or 'k' trigger cursor move up or down to display ui, what should I do?

yazi --debug output have been editd.

So after rebuilding, did the 'Segmentation fault' disappear right? Now the issue is not being able to use it in tmux on mingw, but it works fine directly on mingw right?

[sxyazi]

Can you provide more information please? How does it fail to work in tmux? What exactly happens? It would be even better if there's a video.

Yes, I capture a screen video by xbox game bar which no resolution resize option , so I can't make it to smaller than 10MB and
upload a zip file.

Looks like a rendering issue with your terminal or tmux. Have you tried starting your terminal and tmux with the default configurations?

I remove my tmux config and terminal is the built-in mintty of msys2 which is default config. Tried it still work as the same way.

[sxyazi]

In that case I think this means Yazi can't work on MinGW, or at least can't work fully on MinGW. I'm not familiar with the MinGW platform and not sure why tmux would be a decisive factor here.

I did a quick search and found this issue: crossterm-rs/crossterm#580. It seems that the crossterm library used by Yazi also doesn't fully support MinGW, which could be causing the rendering issues.

I'll keep this issue open for a while to see if any Windows users familiar with MinGW want to investigate it further.

[hjm7]

I‘ve given up tmux in msys2，by replace 'mintty' with 'wezterm' terminal to get its multiplexing feature. Because of its multiplexer is target crossplatform first and no historical burden, so it works well . Besides that, I can get almost the same tmux keybinding because of Lua's flexible config.
