Re: (Probably simple) problem with displaying Unicode characters

Hi Knute,

Thanks for responding. The funny thing is, I think anyone reading this
post must think I've gone mad, because looking at my code now, the beta
displays just fine. It did not, however, when I tried posting - it
came up looking like a "careted" capital I to the power of 2.

My question then becomes:
1. Is my code at all buggy? (I maintain that it's not and that it's
perfectly legal; maybe I'm using the wrong encoding? I got it from an
online example).
2. Do I have a possible font problem?

I forgot to mention perhaps that the output is being sent to the
Eclipse debug/output console, and that's where it's not displaying
properly.

I've never seen anyone setting the encoding on a printstream directed to the console before. Presumably, the OS (or Eclipse in this case), will set up the encoding the way it likes, so setting it differently might mess things up.
