What console font are you using, and which codepage? The default OEM codepage is quite likely 437, and you may need to change it to 850.
Codepage 437 is the original IBM ANSI OEM CodePage that contains line drawing characters. Codepage 850 is the multilingual codepage that has multilingual characters in it. I believe that the current shell is translating to MBCS (ie, the Windows ACP, usually 1252 for Western European languages) so you might want to try that codepage too. Also, the console font will affect the output. The raster fonts do not contain Unicode characters -- try using the Consolas or Lucida Console font (both of which look like crap, though Consolas is the least crappy of the two.) > One thing that concerns me though is that using windows command line > window with the sqlite3.exe v3.13.0 shell to interrogate a database and > display records, is that the display is corrupted - the database is ok but > display is not > SQLite version 3.13.0 2016-05-18 10:57:30 > Enter ".help" for usage hints. > Connected to a transient in-memory database. > Use ".open FILENAME" to reopen on a persistent database. > sqlite> .open test.restorednew.db > sqlite> SELECT path,hex(path) FROM "test-directories" WHERE id=68; > Jap�n (2002)|4A6170C3B36E20283230303229 > sqlite> > whereas version 3.8.6 does display the record ok.
