In a command prompt window on the Windows operating
system, some national characters of the Latin-1 family might appear
corrupted. For example, the letter "a" with a tilde may display
as a pi symbol. To fix this, you must change the font properties of
the command prompt window. To change the font, do the following:
- Click the icon in the upper left corner of the command prompt
window
- Select Properties, then click the Font tab
- The default font is Raster fonts; change this to Lucida Console
and click OK
