that text is not displayed properly, ECL fails to boot?</blockquote><div><br>Sorry, my claim was much too strong. Reading unicode from files seems to work (utf8 at least), it turns out it is just working with the interactive console which is a problem. ECL appears to be interpreting the console input as utf8, but sadly it is not. I think that the characters sent in from typing in the cmd.exe window are based on the active code page CP_ACP. So in that sense stdin should not be interpreted as utf8 but using CP_ACP instead. However, if you use shell redirection to send a utf8 file to stdin, then it is sent in binary form and thus handled correctly. I am not sure if there is a way for ECL to distinguish between these two uses of stdin. :/<br>

current sources, but will check again with the flags you used.</blockquote><div><br>Yes it seems to always happen. It can be reproduced building with the free VC express 2008. Because it happens at ecl boot, the only debugging option seemed to be to debug the c code generated from the lisp sources. And I couldn't work out what was going on in the generated code...<br>
