How to emit Cyrillic and Chinese via unicode from console mode?

[Siegfried Heintze]

Can someone point me to an example of a little program that emits non-ascii 
Unicode characters (Russian or Chinese perhaps)? The unicode 
Russian/Cyrillic alphabet starts at 0x410. Is this possible to do in a 
console mode program? If not, I guess I would want to use pywin32 to create 
a window and a message pump and display it there. I anticipate using pywin32 
for some other function calls.

Thanks!
