  • help: lists the available dos commands - not helpful
  • help cmd: if I use open3 with 'cmd.exe /u' or 'cmd.exe','/u' (for unicode output) it fails
  • chcp: what do I do with the number of the code page in a Tk text widget?
  • Proc::Background: this part of the problem has been solved already

  • My question is still: how to convert cmd.exe output into Tk text widget readable format?
