IB> Thank you for your answer CYGWIN environment variable should be set _before_ cygwin application is started. setting CYGWIN variable from inside of cygwin application, such as setting it from bash's /etc/profile, may lead to _unpredictable_ and _disastrous_ results. you should tweak setting of CYGWIN variable in autoexec.bat (w9x) or from control panel yourself. making codepage to be oem by default is, i believe, wrong. i doubt all or majority of cygwin users prefer it as default.
