Change font for better unicode support about pvpgn-magic-builder HOT 10 CLOSED

What the initial encoding of file should be to correct display cyrillic text with Licuda Console?
Will it work with cyrillic or any text? Chinese for example.

Use UTF-8 without BOM for file encodings. I've tried Korean however it doesn't work correctly but I can confirm that cyrillic works on my computer which is set to US English locale and still on codepage 437.

It doesn't work for me

Hmm, try setting the size to 14

No changes. The same hieroglyphs with and without this font.

Another problem is we can't set relative path for a shortcut. I found this way but font resets to default.

Ok in this case, set the codepage to 65001. I was testing this by changing the font to Lucida by default for all instances of the command prompt(not just the batch file) so that's why it was working for me.

Nice, it works! But still issue with relative paths.

from pvpgn-magic-builder.

We could write a very simple exe file to run the shortcut or have the initial batch file open another command prompt with the shortcut

There are possible bugs and obscurity to go this way. For instance, I tried it on Windows XP and batch takes off with empty screen if set codepage to 65001.

Actually now it gives only a thinner font (although it looks better). If you have a ready tested solution it can be used. Now it can't.

This seems to be a workaround for the Windows XP problem
