Hi,
I've read the FAQ at Cygwin/XFree86 site to figure out how to map the 
keyboard inorder to use Turkish characters under X. As its said I've created 
the file 'xmodmap.trq' using xkeycaps at my redhat 7.3 box and copied it to 
my Cygwin directory under windows. After mapping with xmodmap program it 
seemed to be working. Altough not being able to type Turkish characters in 
bash, using xev and xtrapchar showed me that keys are working fine but 
missing Turkish fonts. So I got the fonts called
XFree86-ISO8859-9-2.1.2-10.noarch.tgz
XFree86-ISO8859-9-75dpi-fonts-2.1.2-10.noarch.tgz
XFree86-ISO8859-9-100dpi-fonts-2.1.2-10.noarch.tgz
lat5-16.psfu.gz
put them into respective directories
( C:\Cygwin\usr\X11R6\lib\X11\fonts\...)
But couldn't find the utility or script which will activate them.
What should I do to see the Turkish fonts. I hope the problem is clear and 
easy to manage. Thank you very much for your helps...
