On the latter if your having problems building the dll use the instructions from http://cygwin.com/cvs.html to get the sources and http://www.cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#SEC103 as a guide on how to build the dll. Ive just re-built the dll again today so the source is buildable. A hint on building the cygwin1.dll and associated utilities: cd /path/to/build /path/to/source/configure --prefix=/path/to/install make make install Elfyn elfyn AT exposure DOT org DOT uk Original Message: ----------------- From: Oleg Leschov kalmas AT udm DOT ru Date: Mon, 02 Dec 2002 01:54:14 +0400 To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Subject: cyrillic console Currently, the character set in cyrillic console seems to be cp1251, while in cmd.exe it is cp866. Nothing too wrong with this, except that cp1251 lacks pseudographic symbols. I am using cygwin to run tin 1.4 with codepage translation table from koi8-r to cp1251. So the pseudographics does not survive this translation. If the codepage is altered from cp866 to cp1251, is that correct that it is easy to convert instead to koi8-r? Why not make this customizable? I've tried to build some release of cygwin dll but didn't succeed yet... well I'll keep trying if it worth it. Perhaps I need to update all utilities to newest versions? -- Oleg Leschov mailto:kalmas AT udm DOT ru FidoNET 2:5050/59.8 -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
