As discussed in the original thread, Emacs uses ANSI version of
Windows API to handle fonts.  Strings passed to or received from APIs
should be encoded in or decoded from ANSI codepage.  To do that,
ENCODE_SYSTEM and DECODE_SYSTEM macros are used (See src/w32font.c).
It means that locale-coding-system is used around Windows font API.
That works well on MinGW64, because locale-coding-system is the same
with ANSI codepage.  But on Cygw32, locale-coding-system is normally
utf-8 and it is not ANSI codepage.  This is the cause of the problem.

My original post makes Emacs use ANSI codepage for Windows font API.
Further discussion indicates to make Emacs on Windows use unicode API
if available.  But no progresss after that.

Hm...  I don't use Windows, so I can't test this, but perhaps the result
from `x-select-font' should use `detect-coding-string' or something on
the result (and then decode it) so that we get a correct string in Emacs?

And the same here, but the other way around -- encode the string before
calling set-frame-front?

Unfortunately, on Debian, it looks like none of the fonts available here
have non-ASCII names, so I can't really test whether this idea even
makes any sense.  Anybody?

Yes.

(set-frame-font "$B#M#S(B $B%4%7%C%/(B-14") raises an error on Cygw32 build
but not on MinGW64 build.  x-select-font function returns encoded
string on Cygw32 build.  Let-binding locale-coding-system to the
correct codepage can avoid the problem.

;; Chose "$B#M#S(B $B%4%7%C%/(B-14"

This was seven years ago, and this function no longer exists, so
obviously things have changed in this area.  Are you still seeing this
bug in a recent version of Emacs?

I figured that much.  So I suggest that the patch to fix this issue be
reworked in that direction.

> Maybe, someday, we can define NTGUI_UNICODE for the NT port too.

That's the plan, yes.  Although I think it will not be a compile-time
test, since there's a lot of work involved, and so some old code will
have to coexist with the new for some time.  Volunteers are welcome.

Already handled, I believe.

We talk to Cygwin here, so there's no problem using locale-coding-system.=

I tried to ferret these out what I was doing the initial port, but it loo=

I missed the font code.

The right code for Cygw32 is to always define NTGUI_UNICODE and unconditi=
onally
use Unicode APIs when NTGUI_UNICODE is set. Maybe, someday, we can define=

NTGUI_UNICODE for the NT port too.

This is not necessarily relevant to Emacs, or at least doesn't provide
a definitive answer to the question what encoding should ENCODE_SYSTEM
use in the cygw32 build, which is a kind of androgen wrt encoding and
decoding issues.

There are several places where this issue might (or will) pop up:

  . decoding keyboard key events
  . encoding and decoding file names
  . encoding strings passed to various non-file APIs, like the one you
    mentioned

At least the first 2 items use different single-byte encoding in the
GUI and the console frames.

Someone(TM) should analyze all these and come up with recommendations
whether cygw32 should cater to the normal Cygwin locale, or maybe for
practical reasons it should do something else.

This is but one example.  As you yourself found out, this encoding is
unsuitable for the font interface.

So maybe we need w32-select-font to use UTF-16 in the cygw32 case, as
it does for menus.

See above: there's much more than just 3.

No, UTF-8 still cannot be used on Windows, AFAIK.

This is a problem with the Cygwin build's initialisation of
locale-coding-system. It is supposed to be set to the coding system that
system calls will accept, which on Windows cannot be utf-8 (maybe on
recent versions it can be, but when I tried on Windows XP, it caused all
manner of problems).

When I run Emacs on Cygwin with the native Windows UI, I can't specify
font by non-ascii font name.  For example, the below code success on
precompiled binary on Windows (Japanese edition) but raises error on
Cygwin with the native Windows UI.

(set-default-font "$B#M#S(B $B%4%7%C%/(B-14")

The reason is that lfFaceName member of LOGFONT structure is expected
to be encoded in ANSI code page, but Emacs encodes in or decodes as
the coding system specified in locale-coding-system variable.  It is
set to utf-8-unix on Cygwin and causes the above problem.

I think the below patch or similar modification would be needed.
