There's nothing wrong in what you're doing. If you expected a different
glyph in the console, your problem is in the code page that it uses.
You can set that somewhere in Windows. I don't know, and you should
really ask in one of the M$ groups.

Only partly, but you definitely did post this one in the wrong way.

Please quote context, otherwise it can be impossible to know what
you're talking about (and to whom). Had I not replied to your OP not
long ago, I wouldn't have a clue what you're on about. Read the link
in my sig.
