I'm looking at https://cygwin.com/packaging-hint-files.html#pvr.hint and it starts off with Use UTF-8 character encoding.
How do I do that and how do I check that I actually did use UTF-8 character encoding _without_ using file? for whatever it's worth: $ file unicode.html unicode.html: HTML document, UTF-8 Unicode text $ file test.c test.c: C source, ASCII text I used vi to create both files & I'd like to understand why file says one is ascii & the other is utf-8 Thanks, Lee -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
