First, I admit to liking Window's Terminal a lot, which I suppose makes me a disloyal customer after 30+ years of 4DOS, 4NT, etc.
When I run TCC 26.01.35 (and earlier) in a Windows Terminal tab, it works quite well. But there is an annoying behavior of LIST when, while viewing a file, I press 'F', type in a search, and hit Enter. The search does its job, but then focus is given to the console's tab rather than to the TCC window under the tab. Because of this, no further keystrokes reach TCC/LIST until I reach for the mouse, move the pointer into the TCC window, then click in it to give it focus. This has to be done after every search.
It's enough to make me wish for the old text-based feedback for LIST interaction. I've taken to using 'less' (a GNU lister) because I can work faster when hands need not leave the keyboard.
I'm not calling this a bug. Obviously, it can be blamed on other software. But it would be nice if TCC played nicely in a Windows Terminal tab.
