Hi,
Im not to sure about changing codepage, something to do with the CYGWIN
environment variable (codepage:???).
On the latter if your having problems building the dll use the instructions
from http://cygwin.com/cvs.html to get the sources and
http://www.cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#SEC103 as a guide on how to build the
dll. Ive just re-built the dll again today so the source is buildable. A
hint on building the cygwin1.dll and associated utilities:
cd /path/to/build
/path/to/source/configure --prefix=/path/to/install
make
make install

Currently, the character set in cyrillic console seems to be cp1251,
while in cmd.exe it is cp866. Nothing too wrong with this, except that
cp1251 lacks pseudographic symbols.
I am using cygwin to run tin 1.4 with codepage translation table from
koi8-r to cp1251. So the pseudographics does not survive this translation.
If the codepage is altered from cp866 to cp1251, is that correct that it
is easy to convert instead to koi8-r? Why not make this customizable?
I've tried to build some release of cygwin dll but didn't succeed yet...
well I'll keep trying if it worth it. Perhaps I need to update all
utilities to newest versions?
