Subject: international characters problem with bash
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Hi,
I installed cygwin bash recently on Win2k professional edition and I had
a problem with
1) displaying file names that contained characters such as é or è (even
though these display right in vi or when catting a vi editted text file
for example)
2) entering these letters on the bash command line.

I edited the inputrc file like documented, but it doesn't seem to solve
the problem.
I understand I am not the first to have this problem, but unfortunately
none of the posts I saw in different mailing lists was answered.

Thanks in advance,
Chahine
