  68. <div class="textblock"><p>All of the examples that come with Boost.Locale are designed for UTF-8 and it is the default encoding used by Boost.Locale.</p>
  69. <p>However, the default narrow encoding under Microsoft Windows is not UTF-8 and the output of the applications would not be displayed correctly in the console.</p>
  70. <p>So in order to use UTF-8 encoding under the Windows console and see the output correctly, do the following:</p>
  71. <ol type="1">
  72. <li>Open a <code>cmd</code> window</li>
  73. <li>Change the default font to a TrueType font: go to properties-&gt;font (right click on title-bar-&gt;properties-&gt;font) and change the font to a TrueType font like Lucida Console</li>
  74. <li>Change the default codepage to 65001 (UTF-8) by running <code>chcp 65001</code></li>
  75. </ol>
  76. <p>Now all of the examples should display UTF-8 characters correctly (if the font supports them).</p>
  77. <p><b>Note for Visual Studio users:</b> Microsoft Visual Studio assumes that all source files are encoded using an "ANSI" codepage like 1252. However all examples use UTF-8 encoding by default, so wide character examples would not work under MSVC as-is. In order to force it to treat source files as UTF-8 you need to convert the files to UTF-8 with BOM, which can be done easily by re-saving them from Notepad, which adds a BOM to UTF-8 files by default. </p>
