Hi,

I note that the regtool/registry interfacing do not yet support non 
ASCII character sets:

$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-6.0 somehost-vista 1.7.0(0.212/5/3) 2009-07-24 09:59 i686 Cygwin
$ regtool get /machine/SOFTWARE/Cygwin/setup/rootdir
C:\software\cygwin?

where the trailing CJK character δΈ­ has been hand added for testing.

Is that right? Are there any plans in this area?

Regards,
Shaddy
