Seems to be windows-specific. Cannot reproduce on OS X.

I want to say there was another issue similar to this...something about colors in an error message. I'll see if I can dig it up.

/cc @nodejs/platform-windows

So it looks like https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/deps/v8/src/base/platform/platform-win32.cc#L556 may be what is causing this. More info on OutputDebugStringA can be found at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa363362(v=vs.85).aspx. Should this be using OutputDebugStringW?

[evanlucas]

The issue I mentioned earlier is #3734. Seems to be related.

让我来用中文抱怨一句：你妹啊，老子以前的这个issues在joyent那放了几百年没人处理，现在那么快就有反映了，果然开源打法好。

This could also be related to nodejs/node-v0.x-archive#7940

[Fishrock123]

cc @nodejs/nodejs-cn, could you translate?

[XadillaX]

@Fishrock123 you mean heroboy's reply?

[Fishrock123]

@XadillaX Yeah (Or reply if you can, either way)

[XadillaX]

@Fishrock123

FML, I opened an issue with same question in joyent's node repo hundreds years ago but no one process with it till now. But contributors here proceeded in a few seconds. I must say open sourcing is so awesome.

I'm unable to reproduce this issue on Windows. What's your Node.js version? In which encoding is main.js saved?

[heroboy]

@seishun v4.2.1 and main.js saved as utf8.
This is my original issues:nodejs/node-v0.x-archive#7387

[seishun]

Tried it on another computer with plain cmd and Node.js v4.2.1 and couldn't reproduce it.

What's your locale and chcp output?

[heroboy]

@seishun I just tired in my home PC, the output is ok,

windows 10, English user interface, Chinese for non-Unicode program, node v5.1.0,
chcp:936

the broken output occurs in my work pc,

windows 8.1, English user interface , Chinese for non-Unicode program, node v4.2.1
chcp:936

[heroboy]

hi, I think this issues is duplicated with #3284, and has been fixed.I will close this.
Thanks.
