"System.out" is a PrintStream so it depends on the default encoding. From
the JavaDocs:
All characters printed by a PrintStream are converted into bytes using the
platform's default character encoding. The PrintWriter class should be
used in situations that require writing characters rather than bytes.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/index.html
If your platform default encoding is ISO-8859-1, than indeed
"System.out.println("\u2261");" isn't going to output, as its not in the
Unicode to ISO mappings -- http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/ISO8859/8859-1.TXT
>> Maybe doing ࣕ would be better in a general setting?
If you do this through a "System.out.write(ࣕ)", it might be
interpretted as a byte instead of a character, which might actually make
it though the filters, though I think it would be best to try to tweak the
platform default encoding to UTF-8 instead. If anyone has any emperical
evidence one way or another let me know.
