First you should set in GNU Emacs a language environment: Cyrillic-ALT, 
Cyrillic-ISO, Cyrillic-KOI8, Ukrainian ... This should already prepare 
most things.

If this doesn't help yet, then there are environment variables in 
xterm's shell, LANG and LC_CTYPE. GNU Emacs 22 will reverse this 
sequence.

If this still is not sufficient you have in GNU Emacs a few variables 
and functions with 'coding-system' you can set, for example:

	(set-terminal-coding-system		'XXX)
	(prefer-coding-system			'XXX)
	(setq default-buffer-file-coding-system 'XXX)
