Thanks Tony.  I can read it OK now w/cat, tail, vim, etc., but unfortunately copy/paste still doesn't work. :(

Try using mintty, which Cygwin recommends. It can copy/paste UTF-8 into vim without any configuration.

I modified Cygwin.bat as follows:

@echo off

C:

chdir C:\cygwin\bin

REM here lies the old line...

REM bash --login -i

REM ...and here's the new

set PATH=C:\cygwin\bin;%PATH%

start mintty
