Marc's answer is a little defeatist, I think, but Cygwin does seem to
have issues with Unicode filenames, and it's not just X.

Being Dutch, working in Germany, and collaberating with Swedish (on an open source project) has grown me many grey hears over the last years, not in the least
all the bad cross-over attempts I've seen going for UTF-8.


IMHO, it only works if "everything" on one system (not only 1 computer, but also server with all clients) are on 1 (one) character set, and stick to it. If that is not the case, stick to ASCII.

Marc
