I've not been able to make that work in any character set supported by any of my text editors

My console defaults to code page 850 (see the pic.)

What I did was print:
[0] Perl> print ~'2014';;
═¤╬╦

And then c&p the output back inside the string:
[0] Perl> print ~'═¤╬╦';;
2014

Presumably if you do the same thing on your local console you should be able to get the same effect although the displayed glyphs will be different. (Though I guess it won't work for Unicrap consoles :)

According to the StackExchange golfing rule book, you're allowed to assume perl is being run as perl -M5.010, so can use say. This takes the solution down to 10 bytes, beating even many of the esolangs, while still being pretty obvious how it works.

use Moops; class Cow :rw { has name => (default => 'Ermintrude') }; say Cow->new->name

That's pretty much optimal, since Perl bitches about putting those things directly in your source, so you can't get rid of the quotes. What are you using as a REPL here?

An evolution of the 15 line script I wrote 10 years ago:

<Reveal this spoiler or all in this thread>

It's pretty eclectic and in a constant state of flux; but it is by far the most used program on my system except possible my editor and browser both of which run constantly.
