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 both bash(in command window) and rxvt (non X window version)
So if I do
cat myfile
it is displayed correctly. However when I pipe it to less
cat myfile | less
it gets broken I get things like: <CF><D0><C5><CF><C8><D1><CA><C0> Same thing is when I do
less myfile
Furthermore I can touch a file with cyrillic filename
touch абвг.txt
but when I do
ls *
it is displayed like ????.txt
When I do tab completion under bash , the filename gets displayed correctly.
My filesystem is NTFS.
In my installation of cygwin nothing sets the LANG and LC environment variables.
What should I do?
I Searched the Internet, FAQs and docs but I get the imression that this question is still unanswered.
I use the Lucida Console TrueType font.
