My bash also won't read the .inputrc file but after some searching I found a solution. To set the output/convert-meta etc. you can use: bind 'set meta-flag on' bind 'set convert-meta off' bind 'set output-meta on' I placed these in my .bashrc and now the scandinavian letters work fine. As do £, ½ and the accents. Tilde, § and ¤ remain disfunctional but luckily there isn't that much need for them (at least for me). -- Henri Vilminko - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
