Hello,
If you are developing C/C++ programs in a terminal environment, you
may know the problem of the codepages. Sometimes in Putty, SSH,... you
may have some problems with characters.
What about this Portability of your terminal applications? - Not

Use UTF-8. Seriously,
The UTF-8 is sure the one to adopt. Luckily it exists ;)
Unicode also has all the weird line-drawing characters you could ever
want, if you find them important.
Indeed. You have a good compatibility, however a limited number of
weid characters.
However, if you would like to show nice effects,
I am not so sure if you can get all the unicode well displayed on most
terminals.
If you make a nice art / ascii graphic, you are never sure whether it
will end well displayed depending on the system/terminal, that the
user uses.

Let's take an example:
Let's take a well-known program: vim compiled for Windows. If you use
gvim.exe in Windows, you have a perfect result. No simple problem with

However, if you take vim.exe (from the same directory

You are completely right. Windows is important.
Another point... what about colors? You never know what the user
using your program will get.
