File character encoding mess

[GyroTech]

HI, I think at some point I've messed up the settings for file encoding somewhere along the line  :?

I'm running version 8.02, on Windows XP, below is an example of what I mean...

Code

char corner = 201;
cout << corner << endl; // outputs ╔ as expected
cout << "╔" << endl; // outputs ôòö wtf?? 

Which file encoding should\can I be using without having to use character ordinal values for everything??

Cheers.
