Hello,
i cast a look at 2.0.4 source - it does not solves this kind of problems. I
guess you prepared program using FP IDE. It uses OEM CP (CP857 for Turkish)
for source encoding. Compiler misencodes these strings because i guess it
uses RTL widestring manager whitch assumes source encoded in ACP (Windows
1254 for turkish).
Solution: Widestrings and FP IDE are not compatible. 1) use strings instead
of widestrings 2) use unicode (UTF-8) enabled editor instead of FP.
For developers:
Do not you consider write(widestring) implementation without conversion into
ansistring better? For example: writting into console may be implemented
using WriteConsole(W) instead of WriteFile.

Subject: Re: [fpc-pascal] International Characters in Console mode
programs...
I cannot manage to print any Turkish characters in console. (Code Page
ISO-8859-9), I use Windows XP Turkish, I can type and display Turkish
characters, but if my FP program's output displays these kind of text,
only spaces or "?" appear instead of intended characters. I use
widestrings to represent these chars. There is something I don't do
right I am sure, but what is it? Thanks in advance.
This is one of the issues that 2.0.4 should at least improve upon. See the
2.0.4 versions on the FTP site.
