Are you asking nonsensical questions for fun or did you not read my mail closely, too? I made the effort to reply to the OP with a detailed mail explaining the issue. I don't understand what this sniding reaction is supposed to accomplish. POSIX and Windows are not naturally compatible. Cygwin tries hard to bridge the gap, but sometimes the gap is really wide. But thanks anyway for providing a solution to the problem by setting the locale environment variables. That might make a good FAQ entry, *iff* somebody has the incentive to write one.
