What do you think that is ? By default all special characters are

This doesn't make sense. Here is how that utf-8 string appear on a iso
viewer, like the lazarus code editor:

 MyStr := 'Accents á, Ã(c), í, ó, ú Polsko: ć, Ä™, Å‚, Å›, ź, ż';

The characters aren't that special. If what you are saying was true,
it would be impossible to write ansi applications using à or (c)

Also, this code works on Gtk2 and Qt interfaces.

  Writeln(T);

I don't think the windows console will display utf-8 characters

I changed from utf8string to string on my code and it didn't change
anything, so I guess we can rule this out.
