Hi. One of my PCs still has Windows 7 and I noticed that when I run 
netsh interface ipv4 show route
or
route print

In Mintty, the output is translated to English and when I run these commands from Cygwin started in a Windows console the output is in the same language as the OS. Does Cygwin do that?

Secondly, it doesn't seem to be affected by TERM= LC_ALL= , redirections or even setsid.

And I also noticed that when the "Interface List" section of "route print" is translated to English the national interface names containing "Microsoft ISATAP" are omitted completely, including the newlines so the output looks like this:

    ...
      1...........................Software Loopback Interface 1
     12...00 00 00 00 00 00 00 e0  14...00 00 00 00 00 00 00 e0  16...00 00 00 00 00 00 00 e0  18...00 00 00 00 00 00 00 e0  20...00 00 00 00 00 00 00 e0  26...00 00 00 00 00 00 00 e0 ===========================================================================
    
    IPv4 Route Table
    ...

Does anybody know the reason?
