Printing unicode

Question

hey is there any way to print Unicode characters into command prompt?
when I try to print Unicode character it says
'charmap' codec can't encode characters in position 0-1: character maps to <undefined>
however it prints OK in python IDLE

Answer 1

yeah it was the first thing I did
but it did not work

Answer 2

it doesn't work either
:(
I'm beginning to think that it can't be done because command prompt can't accept some Unicode characters or something

Answer 3

try to start your program with this comment
# -*- coding: utf -8 -*-

Answer 4

you can also use:
print(str(yourstringvariable).encode('utf-8'))
