Hi

see subject. Following is a dir listing (inclusive control-chars) from
my "Documents and Settings" directory on a german W2K system.

Had you ever installed the XFree86-bin-icons package? Did it work, or did it have the same problem?

This looks like a code page problem (the ³ is an ü in the Windows
codepage)

Check the output of:

cygpath -A -P

That is how we get the path to that folder. Other than that, I had no ideas why bash would munge this... but my knowledge on this topic is not great. Anyone have some ideas?
