I'm a newbie and korean. A few days ago, I installed cygwin and cygwin-xfree package. And then, I changed locale 'LANG=ko' for korean. Simply, I executed xterm. LANG=ko xterm -e vim
I executed vim to write a document in xterm. When I tried to type any key in vim, xterm was closed with 'Segmentation fault (core dumped)' message. Even if I would listen music with xmms. Xmms was closed with 'Segmentation fault' message.
I tested other language environment. below japanese. LANG=ja xterm -e vim
It works fine.
I don't know what is problem. Is there anybody that saw like this?
I suspect newlib doesn't support that locale. Here's what I read on
http://www.mirror.ac.uk/mirror/sources.redhat.com/ftp/newlib/libc.html
This is a minimal implementation, supporting only the required "C" value for locale; strings representing other locales are not honored unless MB_CAPABLE is defined in which case three new extensions are allowed for LC_CTYPE or LC_MESSAGES only: "C-JIS", "C-EUCJP", "C-SJIS", or "C-ISO-8859-1". ("" is also accepted; it represents the default locale for an implementation, here equivalent to "C".)
