export LC_ALL=de_DE.UTF-8 gives following output:
C:\>bash ttt.sh

How do I check that my terminal setting is UTF-8 both for input/output?
All settings I use are made in inputrc:
C:\>cat ~/.inputrc
set meta-flag on
set convert-meta off
set output-meta on
And in my environment variables:
...
BASH=/usr/bin/sh
BASHOPTS=cmdhist:expand_aliases:extquote:force_fignore:hostcomplete:interactive
_comments:progcomp:promptvars:sourcepath
BASH_ALIASES=()
BASH_ARGC=()
BASH_ARGV=()
BASH_CMDS=()
BASH_LINENO=()
BASH_SOURCE=()
BASH_VERSINFO=([0]="4" [1]="1" [2]="10" [3]="4" [4]="release" [5]="i686-
pc-cygwin")
BASH_VERSION='4.1.10(4)-release'
...
CYGWIN=nodosfilewarning
...
POSIXLY_CORRECT=y
...
SHELL=/bin/bash
SHELLOPTS=braceexpand:emacs:hashall:histexpand:history:interactive-
comments:monitor:posix
...
TERM=cygwin

Do you use rxvt, mintty or something like that?
