Hi,

I've just checked in a patch to fhandler_console.cc which adds a
terminal capability to the windows console.

ESC [ ? 47 h	==   Save screen content
ESC [ ? 47 l    ==   Restore screen content

This allows adding the termcap capabilities `ti' and `te' to the
"cygwin" terminal entry in the same way as they are defined for
xterm:

	:te=\E[2J\E[?47l\E8:ti=\E7\E[?47h:

That enables vim to restore the old screen content after quitting
the same way in a console window as it does in a xterm window.
