title: Unicode output on Windows command line?
body: <p>I wrote a small Java application which output includes Unicode characters. When I use Eclipse to run it&mdash;I see all the output as expected.</p>
  
  <p>The people who are supposed to use the application will run it as a jar file. I thought they could use standard cmd window, but in this window the Unicode appear as Gibberish.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to make "cmd window" recognize the Unicode chars and display them properly?
  Or, is there any tool to easily run the jar file and get the correct output?</p>
  
  <p>BTW - redirecting the output to a file works okay, but the program is interactive, so this will not be a good solution.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Edit:</strong> Thanks everybody for the suggestions.
  It seems that the cmd fonts don't have the specific characters I need, and this is why changing the code page did not solve my problem.</p>
  
  <p>I found a <a href="http://thesystemadministrator.com/The_System_Administrator/Tips_&amp;_Tricks/Adding_Fonts_to_Command_Line_(cmd.exe)/" rel="noreferrer">way</a> to add more monospaced fonts to the console, but after I add them any change that I want to do regarding the fonts (even choosing one of the original fonts in a different size) - is ignored.</p>
  
  <p>I think that I will simply try with another tool, which supports chhosing a differnt font more easily.</p>
