Re: grep treating my text files as binary!

I ran into this, actually. I keep a list of my directories and it is in
CP1252 for reasons of interfacing with CMD.EXE. Suddenly grep couldn't
match it. But I figured something was up and set my locale to CP1252 and
then it worked.
I just keep a "CHCP 65001" at the beginning of all CMD files that are meant to interface with Cygwin.
