But there is still no way to actually see utf-8 characters displayed, or even their unicode values(ie it's still a single byte editing mode). If someone manages to get it working, please post:) Also I know about the lack of utf-8 support in cygwin for most of the windows calls(and personally think that the cygwin utf-8 wrapper code patch would be a vast improvement, that is the one from okisoft that got posted to cygwin's ml long ago, though I understand some people dont like how it's done). This should still not be a problem for one to do an "echo éé<backspace>" in his term transparently. (no problematic wide windows calls involved there as far as I know).
