Sorry, I messed messages, for generating this message I used screen 0.

I use two instances of Cygwin simultaneously - one in 8 bit color depth,
one in 32 depth. The reason is, I cannot use Visual builder in 32 bits - it
needs Pseudocolor. But C++ developing environment has messed colors in 8
bits, so I need 32 (it's also messed, but less).

Of course I read FAQ and found that, I have no problem to use xmodmap. But
I probably need also change the locale from ISO-8859-1 to ISO-8859-2 to use
correct fonts and display Czech characters.

Thanks
