Going by your screenshots and their descriptions, DMD is behaving correctly.

I do, however, feel that D's stdio ought to support codepages(In reply to

Going by your screenshots and their descriptions, DMD is behaving correctly.

> Note that all Russians have 866 codepage by default in Windows Command Prompt.

You mean it's hard-coded for each language's edition of Windows?  That's
something else that ought to change.

> Nobody will be switching 866 to any other codepage for console application.

Console output is an entirely separate issue from source encoding.  I feel that
D's stdio ought to support codepages, but it doesn't (aside from the fact that
printf isn't part of D's stdio).  Meanwhile, please check out my utility
library
