Re: putty isn't displaying correctly with 1.7

#x27;ve got a mismatch between Cygwin's character set and PuTTY's. Cygwin's default is UTF-8, whereas PuTTY's is ISO-8859-1. Change it under Window/Translation in PuTTY's options. (Or use mintty, which is a PuTTY derivative tailored for Cygwin, including 1.7's loc

Re: run2.exe segfaults when GDI and X11 elements are present

Re: rsync no longer preserves extended ASCII characters after 1.7 upgrade

f your Linux system. Yes, that's one way. Specifying e.g. 'LC_CTYPE=en_US rsync ...' (i.e. a language without an explicit character set) will give you the ANSI codepage. But I think the --iconv option is the better way. Assuming you want to stick with ISO-8859-1 on the Linux side, &#
