A solution that doesn't require changing from the posix emulation layer is
shown [here
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/michkap/archive/2008/03/18/8306597.aspx]
test.c
{{{
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <io.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main()
{
//this seems to fix the problem
_setmode(_fileno(stdout), _O_U8TEXT );
char testStr[] = "∷⇒∀→←⋯⊢";
//posix emulation
write( STDOUT_FILENO, testStr, strlen(testStr) );
return 0;
}
}}}
`gcc test.c -o test.exe`
`test.exe`
{{{
∷⇒∀→←⋯⊢
}}}
`test.exe > output && type output`
{{{
∷⇒∀→←⋯⊢
}}}
