Subject: [ruby-core:56821] [ruby-trunk - Bug #8592] when outputing to	console, it's encoding is ignored for Windows


Issue #8592 has been updated by davispuh (D��vis Mos��ns).


Raster fonts are also default for PowerShell and it does crash there too.

Is it just for my Win8 installation or everyone that raster fonts are default unless you change them?

Bug #8592: when outputing to console, it's encoding is ignored for Windows
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8592#change-41363

Author: davispuh (D��vis Mos��ns)
Status: Third Party's Issue
Priority: Normal
Assignee: cruby-windows
Category: 
Target version: 
ruby -v: ruby 2.0.0p195 (2013-05-14) [x64-mingw32]
Backport: 1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: UNKNOWN


=begin
for example code

  #!/usr/bin/env ruby
  #encoding: utf-8
  print "testing ��"


when open CMD with changed encoding ie. ((%chcp 1257%))

it wont correctly output ((*��*)) even that encoding and console does support it.

also if we change console's encoding to utf-8 with ((%chcp 65001%))
both Ruby versions (1.9 and 2.0) will crash (see attachment)

=end
