   Since you are working on a Windows system, try

   user_preamble = "set encoding iso_8859_1"

I am curious: maxima runs inside a cygwin shell on windows, doesn't
it? Shouldn't the shell be setting this locale information correctly?
or, in other words, can't the locale be set in the script that
launches maxima?

The reason that I ask is this: with linux+gcl and with my default
locale of en_US.UTF8, the above command works fine without the
user_preamble line.
