Hi Abraham,

Alexander Barkov, character sets team lead, wrote:

Although "chcp 65001" works, the problem is that
Windows does not really support in full extent UTF-8
in standard C input/output operations like fgets/fputs/printf,
which are used in mysql command client sources.

To work around this problem we replaced the standard
C input/output operations to Windows Unicode Console API.
Please take a look here:

This task might be implemented in MySQL-5.6.
