Result: mojibake. It does work correctly with > LANG=ja_JP.SJIS. You should set an appropriate alias in locale.aliases. When the i18n framework in X11 was implemented, The default character encoding in the Japanese locale wasn't necessarily EUC-JP. I remember there was a conditional macro in the source of locale.aliases to adjust it about 20 years ago. The default encoding in the X11 locale should be adjusted to the system locale. It is a natural way of solving this problem. -- Kazuhiro Fujieda -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
