BTW, this subject (wide and multibyte character functions in cygwin)
just came up on the XEmacs-nt list. Ben Wing is trying to get "MULE"
support for XEmacs to work on cygwin (MULE is some sort of
character-coding, wide-char, unicode thingy...)
Anyway, check the xemacs-nt mailing list if you're interested:
http://list-archive.xemacs.org/xemacs-nt/
(Also, you may see references to a possible (new) bug in sscanf -- I
haven't had time to track that one down, and forgot to mention it. I'll
put that in its own thread)
(Chris hates these taglines, but here goes:
