Non-X rxvt can't display UTF-8. You should install 'rxvt-unicode' package, then read /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/rxvt-unicode-X-7.7.README which contains a lot of useful information on how to configure and use it. (Except that it says that vi can't display UTF-8 which is not true because you can :set enc=utf-8). Your perl command works well and displays Cyrillic letters in my rxvt-unicode window. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
