Unfortunately, it has no effect under Cygwin. Also, it causes gtypist to start with the deceptive error message: (null): i18n problem: invalid value for msgid Y/N: #1044;/#1053; And it prints the correct cyrillic characters for Deh and En! So, parts of it are atleast working. This whole thing is really, really irritating. I guess I will just use my linux machine for typing practice. Since Windows itself supports the proper keymap, I can get by. Thank you. -- David Snopek
Russian Keymap
Hi, I am trying to get gtypist working under cygwin so I can learn to type better in Russian. I have a US keyboard that should be maped to Russian the same way MS Windows does (not sure if this is the only way). I can get xterm to show cyrillic characters properly using -fn. But nothing I try can get the keymap right. Doing setxkbmap ru will cause xterm to show nothing on keypress and gtypist will show '^' characters. Thank you, - #1044;#1072;#1074;#1080;#1076;. PS: I am not on the list, so remember to CC: me!!
