This is in an xterm (so might be better on the xfree list?) but I couldn't find anything with regards to getting locales working - most of the information just said that it [cygwin] didn't support them - so I thought I'd try the wider list. At the moment I'm having to resort to putty so if I could get it working I'd be most appreciative!
