Unicode batch files
in [MFC]

From: Konrad Kullig on 12 Apr 2010 10:09 Use TCC/LE free command line interpreter (http://www.jpsoft.com). This can run UNICODE (UTF-16, little endian) batch files.

I'm curious to how you created the batch file? What functions? If you have control (by creating them), do they need to be in UTF8 w/ BOM? -- HLS
From: ab` on 12 Apr 2010 10:46 I was hoping I would have to resort to this, but the best answer may be to write a mini-app that reads .bat files, then calls CreateProcess. PowerShell can't be assumed to be installed on user machines.

From: ab` on 12 Apr 2010 11:30 ...."wouldn't have to"... The real problem isn't the "的翻.data" file, which I can name anything, it's that the file may be be in a non-ANSI folder (e.g. F:\的翻\的翻.data).
From: Joseph M. Newcomer on 12 Apr 2010 14:47 THere is a /u switch to cmd that I was once told about, but I have not looked it up to see what it does; I was told it (at least) causes the output to be in Unicode, but I have no idea if it has any other effects. I would be very surprised if it could handle UTF-8 encoded batch files, BOM or not. UTF-16 would be the best we could hope for. joe On Mon, 12 Apr 2010 02:15:07 -0700, "Mihai N." <nmihai_year_2000(a)yahoo.com> wrote: >> I'm working on an app that (among other things) writes batch files. >> Presently, the batch files are UTF-8 encoded, with BOM.
