After updating I added following lines on top of my script:
export LANG=C.UTF-8
echo LANG: $LANG
echo LC_CTYPE: $LC_TYPE
c:/unix/bin/gawk --version | head -1
And this is my output:
LANG: C.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE:
GNU Awk 4.0.1
CYGWIN_NT-6.0-WOW64 WIESWEG 1.7.15(0.260/5/3) 2012-05-09 10:25 i686 Cygwin
0000000 R 374 c k e n \r \n
0000010
Length: 5
Very strange!
But after adding
export LC_CTYPE=C
I got the correct result.
Thanks for your quick help!
