Rxvt pretty much only supports ASCII characters. It's also abandoned upstream, so it isn't likely to be fixed either. However, if rxvt used to work for you under Cygwin 1.5, you might be able to make it happy again by changing your LANG setting to LANG=C. I highly recommend mintty. -Jeremy -- 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
