Hello, Yitzchak, YST> Letting perl know what the encoding of your data is should enable /i to work YST> correctly. How you would do this depends on what exactly you are doing; it YST> may just require a "use encoding 'cp1251';". (I assume 2151 was a typo.) Well, all I got was perfectly formed UTF8 output, and this is not what I've been looking for because now I need somehow to convert UTF8 input to CP1251 to be able to use for database query and ... yes, again do case-insensitive regex on it. As soon as missing locale is an issue for lots of application, including Perl and Postgress, and as soon as maintainers of newlib do not have time or do not want to add this functionality maybe it's possible to add some hooks to use Windows' native locale support ? ActivePerl and MySQL guys did it, it's far from being perfect but at least it works. -- Regards, Sergei Kolodka -- 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/
