I am not able to get unicode to work under Win7 command prompt. I am changing the code page to 65000 and want to print the diagonals from Re^2: Random maze generator. I cannot post all the permutations I have tried from the various Perl unicode tutorials and FAQs. So here is my skeleton code and I would like to know which combination of encode, decode, etc makes this work and what is not needed to do. Many thanks

use strict;
use warnings;
use Encode;
use utf8;

binmode STDOUT, ':encoding(UTF-8)';
my $enc = "utf-8";
system( "chcp 65000" );

# from node http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=843144
my $ne = "\xe2\x95\xb1";
my $nw = "\xe2\x95\xb2";

print $ne, $nw, "\n";
