Hi,

I'm working with a localized (german) Windows (XP) version and
Cygwin 1.3.20-1 (in conjunction with rxvt). Doing the following:

cd /cygdrive/c
cd Profile
cd Administrator
ll | grep Start
dr-xr-xr-x+   3 Administ Kein            0  1. Mar 12:00 Startmenü

'Startmenü' is now properly displayed, though performing 'ls -l'
results in:

[...]
dr-xr-xr-x+	2 Administ Kein		0	1. Mar 12:00 SendTo
dr-xr-xr-x+	3 Administ Kein		0	1. Mar 12:00 Startmen?
drwxrwxrwx+	6 Administ Kein		0	1. Mar 12:00 UserData
[...]

Both 'cd Startmenü' and 'cd Startmen?' will change in the Startmenü
subdirectory.
Also, the directories 'Müller' and 'Möller' will look exactly the
same through ls:

drwx---r-x+	2 Administ Kein		0  1. Mar 12:00 M?ller
drwx---r-x+	2 Administ Kein		0  1. Mar 12:00 M?ller

Is there any way of changing this ls behaviour, i.e. enabling *full*
support for umlauts (8-Bit ASCII) somehow? May I influence this with
an entry within the .inputrc config file?
I've set the following there:

set convert-meta off
set input-meta on
set meta-flag on
set output-meta on

Thanks in advance,
greetings,

Svartsjel
