Umm, yes, character set/encoding support in Cygwin is minimal. If you
look at the fileutils sources, though, there is some code that does
presumably locale-specific quoting. I basically glanced at it, but if you
wanted to improve the behavior of Cygwin tools, that's the place I would
start from.
Well, this is not entirely true.
While programs do lookup the LANG envvar, they do not recode properly.
For example when I do:
export LANG=bg_BG.CP1251
or
export LANG=bg_BG.UTF-8
wget uses the bulgarian po-file translation, but it is not recoded
properly and is just a Latin-1 dump of an UTF-8 file

What does it mean to "have your locale settings straight" in cygwin ?
Is it possible to make cygwin resp

Just to clarify things a bit further:
My problem is that rm -v cyr_file_name
produces output:
removing `\344\356\344\356\blah-blah-bla'
instead of
removing `cyr_file_name'
I can ls and rm files with cyrillic names just fine.

Hi guys,
Another nontrivial question for cyrillic in Cygwin:
How do I make the command `rm' show cyrillic when doing
rm -v file_with_cyrillic_letters_in_filename
for example
rm -v кирил
.inputrc contains:
set meta-flag on
set convert-meta off
set output-meta on
Shell is bash
terminal is win32 rxvt

In your ~/.bashrc:
alias less='/bin/less -r'
alias ls='/bin/ls -F --color=tty --show-control-chars'
Thanx, these work and they are included by default in .bashrc, they are
just commented out.
(the ls line does not include the --show-control-chars option, maybe it
should be included, who do I hav

Hi guys,
I successfully downloaded and installed Cygwin on Windows 2000
Professional. I want to display all cyrillic properly.
I am a Bulgarian user - so I have a preference for Windows-CP1251 encoding.
I did the usual meta magic in ~/.inputrc, and now I can input cyrillic
letters properly in bot
