Re: Unicode again, in Win7 cmd

The characters are encoded in bytes. Therefore, the terminal should be set to utf-8, but the STDOUT should not. Remove the binmode. (You can safely remove use utf8 and use Encode, too. There is no unicode character in the code for the first one.)

Without binmode I get "в•±в•І" instead of "ГўВ•В±ГўВ•ВІ". Sorry: was meant as reply to choroba.	[reply]

Now this works (prints black spade suit): `system( "chcp 65001" ); print "\xe2\x99\xa0\n";` [download] It seems that the font I am using "Lucida Console" (and the other fonts offered in "Properties") just has no entries for the diagonals :-< A quick look into the "Character Map" tool confirms this. All this time wasted... Thanks for all your replies. From here I guess I need to find out which fonts have the diagonals and how can I get cmd.exe to use one of them. But this is not a Perl question.
