Wrong output of quotes in Windows (encoding?)

[Hugo Florentino]

Hi,

A short while ago I had minor difficulties escaping quotes, and noticed 
(I don't remember where) a simple function by a D user which I have now 
tried to enhance. The problem is that output is incorrect in Windows 
(even with unicode-supporting fonts). I tried to use transcode but could 
not get it to work.

Check the following code, and please advise me what to do in order to 
get the correct output:


import std.stdio, std.string, std.encoding;

@trusted string quote(in string str, in char chr = 'd') pure {
   switch(chr) {
     case 'b': return '`' ~ str ~ '`'; // backtick
     case 'd': return `"` ~ str ~ `"`; // double
     case 'f': return `«` ~ str ~ `»`; // french
     case 's': return `'` ~ str ~ `'`; // single
     case 't': return `“` ~ str ~ `”`; // typographic
     default: return `"` ~ str ~ `"`; // double
   }
}

void main() {
   char[] a = ['b', 'd', 'f', 's', 't'];
   auto input = "just a test";
   foreach(char type; a)
     writeln(format("Quote type %s:\t%s", type, quote(input, type)));
}
