This question was asked at stackoverflow here and here.

Summary

• Change your code page to UTF-8 with chcp 65001 in your batch file or CMD session.
  

• Start CMD with CMD /u to cause CMD to redirect to files in UTF-16, Little Endian.
  Windows distinguishes between showed up text and redirected text to a file.

• For viewing Unicode characters in a CMD Window you need to use Lucida Console or Consolas as font instead of Raster Font. Or else some unicode characters are showed up garbled.
