I've added this to the FAQ: "Why don't international (8-bit)
characters work?" currently at
<http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_4.html#SEC41>.

I cheated and put 8-bit characters directly in the HTML.  Is this a
problem?  My copy of Netscape doesn't seem to mind.  Could people have
a look and report if it's a problem with their browser?  (No need to
respond if it works fine.)

Thanks,
David
