           Summary: Wine should convert OEM->Terminal charset on console
                    output
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.0-rc4
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1
         Component: ntdll
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: wine at mkarcher.dialup.fu-berlin.de


If a programs writes a text to the console when running in a terminal (without
wineconsole), the windows program is expected to output text encoded in the OEM
codepage. The terminal emulator used usually does not expect to get Codepage
437 or Codepage 850, so there should be a conversion layer.

I know that this problem is difficult and maybe unsolvable, as for ouput to
pipes or files you never ever know what the reader of the file/pipe is going to
expect.
