Printing to AutoIt Console in Cyrillic

[CygnusX1]

Hello, 

I have searched and found several topics on printing to the AutoIt console using different languages but I'm still stumped. I saw I could add lines to the users.properties file

code.page=65001
output.code.page=65001

But my text isn't showing up in language. 

My script is opening up a program that has been translated to Russian on a Russian OS (Windows). I grab the text of the menus and want to print the words to the console. 

What am I missing?

Thank you.

try using this udf to display the output:

; Show UTF characters in a proper way with ConsoleWrite
; Author: jchd
Func __ConsoleWrite($s)
    ConsoleWrite(BinaryToString(StringToBinary($s, 4), 1))
EndFunc   ;==>__ConsoleWrite

Hi Jos, 

Thanks for the response. 

I'm still getting the weird black diamond question marks.

I have File > Encoding > UTF8 with BOM set. Is this necessary?

I'm using your code...

ConsoleWrite(BinaryToString(StringToBinary($sData, 4), 1))

Any other thoughts?

Show me a simple oneliner statement with your characters so I can have a play.
