I'm trying to use Hebrew Characters in my code. but my terminal (CMD) can't support Hebrew and instead it just displays random question marks. For example:
>>>Print("דוגמא")
result: ?????
\
EDIT: The CMD console simply has no Hebrew letters in its default font. You can simply change the font to display Hebrew.
I have a solution. Change console font in Windows There is a code there to change the font. I found out it also works for fonts that are usually not supported by CMD.
according to the answer:
import ctypes
LF_FACESIZE = 32
STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE = -11
class COORD(ctypes.Structure):
_fields_ = [("X", ctypes.c_short), ("Y", ctypes.c_short)]
class CONSOLE_FONT_INFOEX(ctypes.Structure):
_fields_ = [("cbSize", ctypes.c_ulong),
("nFont", ctypes.c_ulong),
("dwFontSize", COORD),
("FontFamily", ctypes.c_uint),
("FontWeight", ctypes.c_uint),
("FaceName", ctypes.c_wchar * LF_FACESIZE)]
font = CONSOLE_FONT_INFOEX()
font.cbSize = ctypes.sizeof(CONSOLE_FONT_INFOEX)
font.nFont = 12
font.dwFontSize.X = 11
font.dwFontSize.Y = 18
font.FontFamily = 54
font.FontWeight = 400
font.FaceName = "Lucida Console"
handle = ctypes.windll.kernel32.GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE)
ctypes.windll.kernel32.SetCurrentConsoleFontEx(
handle, ctypes.c_long(False), ctypes.pointer(font))```
