i18n shell in windows

Question

Is there an i18n shell in windows that supports a large character set? Testing my application in windows results in some math characters not being rendered correctly. The Lucida font in cmd.exe and powershell do not have a wide enough selection.

Unicode UTF-8 would be the most preferable, followed by the other Unicode encodings.

Answer 1

I'm not sure if this is a problem in the font or the console itself but you could try installing the DejaVu Sans Mono font and see if that provides the necessary characters.
