342 | How can I use rxvt-unicode under cygwin? |
|
|
343 | rxvt-unicode should compile and run out of the box on cygwin, using |
|
|
344 | the X11 libraries that come with cygwin. libW11 emulation is no |
|
|
345 | longer supported (and makes no sense, either, as it only supported a |
|
|
346 | single font). I recommend starting the X-server in "-multiwindow" or |
|
|
347 | "-rootless" mode instead, which will result in similar look&feel as |
|
|
348 | the old libW11 emulation. |
|
|
349 | |
|
|
350 | At the time of this writing, cygwin didn't seem to support any |
|
|
351 | multi-byte encodings (you might try "LC_CTYPE=C-UTF-8"), so you are |
|
|
352 | likely limited to 8-bit encodings. |
