Congratulations on getting Kakoune to build on MinGW! I didn't realise it was possible. What steps did you take to get it to build?

What does "try to close a block" mean? Just typing {} in insert mode?

Can you reproduce the problem when starting Kakoune without loading any configuration (kak -n)?

Unfortunately, none of the functions mentioned in the callstack there are defined by Kakoune or (directly) called by Kakoune; it sounds like something went awry in whatever POSIX-compatibility layer MinGW uses and if Kakoune is to blame then any useful evidence appears to have been lost.

The specific case was with trying to install plug.kak or configuring a plugin.

I cannot. It seems to be related to syntax highlighting since that got disabled.

It's been a while since I first attempted to build it so I can't remember for sure if I had any issues relating to compilation then. I updated it yesterday and it built fine. The only issue is with the find call in the Makefile, but that's easily solved with alias find=/usr/bin/find

steps to reproduce

1. build Kakoune source code from latest github repo with latest msys2.exe on Windows 10
2. kak -n kakoune/src/context.cc
3. press key **m** twice
