Re: bug report on GREP

[Stepan Kasal]

Dear Kaminishi Toshio,
        thank you for the bug report.

In order to use multibyte characters with grep, the appropriate locale
settings must be set.  Perhaps one of the following is correct:
        ja_JP.eucjp
        ja_JP.ujis
        ja_JP.utf8
        japanese.euc
        japanese.sjis

So you type in the Cygwin window (bash) this:

        export LC_ALL=ja_JP.utf8

if you use UTF-8, or similarily for other encodings.

Command ``locale'' shows the current setting, ``locale -a'' shows all
possibilities.

Would you please tell me which encoding you use, when you mentioned
that OMBIKI has code 0x815b?

Unfortunately, it's possible that even if evrything is set up this
way, grep still doesn't work.  In that case, it's a bug.

I beleive this bug will be fixed in the future, but I'm afraid it
won't be soon.  I apologize for the inconvenience.

Yours sincerely,
        Stepan Kasal
