Saving a filename with a unicode character
Posted: 06 Apr 2012 23:19
I've been searching and searching on google for examples, but can't figure out how to do it.
All I want to do is create an empty text file with the following name (as a placeholder).
something like this:
echo > ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ %location% ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒
I dont need to see this character ▒ in a command window; which seems to be the most common examples I've seen. All I know is I might have to use the chcp command. I have no idea what code page to use for it; or, how to even setup the batchfile for my echo command to work.
Below, is everything I could find in reference to that special character (in terms of unicode character lookup).
