[issue21164] print unicode in Windows console

[Leslie Klein]

Leslie Klein added the comment:

I start ipython in Windows PowerShell. The "console" I am referring to is
ipython running in WindowsPowerShell.
I do not use the DOS cmd.exe

When running ipython notebook from WindowsPowerShell -- no problem printing
unicode.

When running in PTVS (Python Tools for Visual Studio) debugger -- no
problem printing unicode in Output window, or Interactive Python window.
Problem does appear in Console window (which is the DOS window I believe).
