hmmm... I was not sure where to post this! I want emit non-ascii chinese and ciryllic text. I'm running windows server 2003 with cygwin xfree86.
I know I have one font that can render chinese and russian: "Arial Unicode MS".
How can I configure my cygwin xterm so I can emit russian and chinese?
Below is the response I got from the beginners perl group.
Thanks,
Siegfried
