[Bug 15736] New: Console programs outputs localized messages in wrong encoding

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15736

Summary: Console programs outputs localized messages in wrong
                    encoding
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.5
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: winex11.drv
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

When launching any Windows console programs with 'wine', the text will be
output in the DOS codepage, no matter what my Unix encoding is. For example, if
I launch:

wine cmd.exe

having a Russian locale (ru_RU.CP1251) it will output Russian text in Windows
codepage 866, which is unreadable.

wineconsole works fine because it provides its own console with the correct
codepage. Exampple:

$ wine cmd
‚ҐабЁп CMD 1.1.5

Z:\home\zap>

Should be:

$ wine cmd
Версия CMD 1.1.5

Z:\home\zap>

I think the layer which outputs text to stdout/stderr (and reads from stdin)
must convert everything from UCS-2 or WANSI to current Unix encoding (which can
be obtained with nl_langinfo (CODESET)) and not to DOS codepage. The
wineconsole layer may be left as it is.
