I found a UTF-16 file on my computer. Used 'TYPE' from a cmd window
to see the data.
Used cygwin 'file' to verify that it was UTF-16.
Then cygwin 'grep' which failed (I don't have a Windows version but
nobody claims it works anyway). Then 'FIND' from a cmd window (using
the same string which failed for grep) and it worked.
I will try Windows XP tomorrow.
