These may not be appropriate to use with an xterm window.
Indeed. I'd recommend to use the escape sequence (as used by the other
responder in .bashrc) also from a program so it'll work in xterm and
mintty, too.

In cygwin console and mintty, you can use UTF-8 text (or whatever

depends on proper configuration.
