UTF-8 Cygwin


# I should have posted this message to this list from the first.

I made a patch to cygwin1.dll to support UTF-8.

It allows you to use all of characters and file (or path) names
allowed in Windows, while keeping binary-compatibility with the
current Cygwin.  It is fairly perfect except for lack of locale
support etc.  So it may remind you of the good old BeOS.  See:
