But Jarrett, almost everybody who codes in Russian needs Windows-1251 codepage
by default. If we need to compile small program and we don't have robist IDE we
use notapad.exe (or something like this) that saves  Russian text in
Windows-1251.
And nobody will be changing his dafault font in "Command Prompt" to Lucida
Console only for my small program - I swear you!
Any other compilers (Pascal, C, C++) understand that the Russian text in
Windows is in Windows-1251! Currently I dont have any good editor for D whare I
can normally edit Russian texts in UTF-8. Entice Designer has a bug confirmed
by Chris Miller - you cannot enter Russian text, only copy and paste.
Therefore if you build a D compiler for Win32 platform, you have make it work
with widely used regional codepages.  Because the entire world is not English
only and fully not UTF-8!
