Thanks so much for taking the time to help. This is the first time I've
used a mailing list so I hope I've replied correctly.
Yep, except you replied to me instead of the list. ;)
I hope I got the right address this time!
Are you running the Cygwin 1.7 beta? 1.5 doesn't support locales.
('uname -r' will tell you.)
I've just upgraded to the beta version (1.7.0).
I understand your comments. This is now in my cygwin.bat file
(definitely for the correct, beta, installation):
@echo off
C:
chdir C:\cyg\bin
set LANG=th_TH.UTF-8
bash --login -i
And these lines in my .bashrc file (also definitely the correct
installation):
alias ls='ls -hF --color=tty --show-control-chars' #
classify files in colour
export LANG="th_TH.UTF-8"
And yet it's still not listing unicode characters properly. Now that
I've upgraded, it's not giving any warning messages ("ls: cannot access
???????????????? : No such file or directory.")
when running 'ls' in a folder with Thai filenames. It's just listing
????.doc or whatever.
I cannot see the solution but would be really grateful if someone else
can. It's a pretty critical feature for me to get working if I want to
use cygwin.
